Discuss., doi:10.5194/amt-2016-228,2016 Manuscript under review for AMT (discussion: open, 0 comments) The database contains the complete(polarimatric) scattering information for different types of ice particles at different incident and scattered radiation directions at 4 microwave wavelengths. These results are useful for understanding the dependence of ice-particle scattering properties on ice-particle orientation with respect to the incident and scattered radiation. It is also useful in ice property retrievals, radar forward simulation.
