Dear all,

    I feel a little bit stupid, but I haven't found a standard name for
a local ("in-situ") measurement of liquid water content (expressed in
g/m^3).

  I've found so far :

 - atmosphere_cloud_liquid_water_content : But my measurements are
local, not vertically integrated.
 - cloud_liquid_water_content_of_atmosphere_layer : I can't define the
layer as the height of the sensible volume of the probe, can I ?
 - cloud_liquid_water_mixing_ratio : not the appropriate quantity
(mass/mass)
 - mass_fraction_of_cloud_liquid_water_in_air : again, not the
appropriate quantity.


  Any hint ?

  Thanks in advance,

Bruno.
