TIWP and CIWP data used for accepted JGR paper 2020JD032848RR

<p>The public open source of vertically-resolved cloud hydrometeor profiles of CloudSat-CALIPSO 2C-ICE product [Deng et al., 2010; 2013; <a href="http://www.cloudsat.cira.colostate.edu/">http://www.cloudsat.cira.colostate.edu/</a>] provides a reference for the global evaluation of cloud ice water path (CIWP) and total ice water path (TIWP).&nbsp;The data are&nbsp;derived from a retrieval flag-based partitioning method as a guide to sort ice mass retrievals into two categories based on 2C-ICE data [Li et al., 2012].</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>REFERENCES:</p> <p>Deng, M., G.
