A-Train Symposium, April 19-21, 2017 Pasadena, California 5. Conclusion In the studied case, the CloudSat IWC retrievals (2B-CWC-RO) are close to the in situ observation, some differences are observed with high IWC (>1g/m3); The hi-res GEM model shows the potentiality to predict the tropical deep convective clouds; At ~ 7 km, the IWC is slightly overestimated by the model with P3 scheme; At ~ 11 km, the IWC is underestimated; Two directions are currently under study for explaining the underestimation of IWC at high altitude with the P3 microphysics scheme: dynamics & secondary ice process.
