The Cloud Combination Probe (CCP) is an in situ cloud probe manufactured by Droplet Measurement Technologies. It consists of a Cloud Droplet Probe (CDP), Cloud Imaging Probe (CIP), and Liquid Water Content (LWC) Probe. Both the CIP and CDP measure particle size distribution for the 12.5 μm- 1.55 mm and 2-50 μm size range, respectively. They both operate at the 658 nm wavelength and have a sampling frequency ranging from 0.05 to 25 Hz. CIP also provides 2D imagery to determine the size and shape of the particles. LWC Probe uses a hotwire sensor to measure LWC in the 0 to 3 grams per cubic meter.
