a (Left) (dry) N2 profiles at a vertical resolution of 20 m estimated from UAV4A data (blue) and B1 data (black). (Right) The corresponding M2 profiles. The CT labels refer to the N2 and M2 peaks in the UAV4A- and B1-derived profiles at cloud tops. The two blue (black) arrows indicate the N2 and M2 peaks that may coincide with the top and bottom of KH billows crossed by UAV4A (B1). The horizontal dashed lines delineate the KH region (2). b (Left) N2 profiles estimated from UAV4A data (blue) and UAV4D data (red). (Right) The corresponding M2 profiles. The CT labels refer to the N2 and M2 peaks at cloud tops that differed by about 300 m between ascent and descent. The two blue arrows indicate the N2 and M2 peaks that may coincide with the top and bottom of KH billows crossed by UAV4A. The horizontal dashed lines delineate the KH region (2)
