These cloud droplets are small and do not increase <br />much with height. This indicates that both the warm phase and mixed phase precipitation are very <br />inefficient. The CIP shows that precipitation size drops are measured mostly above 2.6 km cloud depth <br />indicating the initiation of precipitation (Figure 11d).
