Interactive comment on “ Finely laminated Arctic mixed-phase clouds occur frequently and are correlated with snow ” by

This study by McCullough et al. is one of few studies presenting very high-resolution observations of clouds. This study reveals that laminated features in Artic clouds are not uncommon and attempts to quantify the relative occurrence of this phenomenon. It also estimates correlations between the occurrence of laminated clouds and the occurrence of precipitation, which could help improve our understanding of the formation mechanism of these laminations and/or of the impact of these laminations on precipitation.
