Campaign : Remote Cloud Sensing (RCS) Field Evaluation
1994.04.01 - 1994.05.31
Lead Scientist : Robert Kropfli
Data Availability
CPRS Cloud Data (from the University of Massachusetts Cloud Profiling Radar System (CPRS))
For data sets, see below.
Description
The primary purpose of the field evaluation and calibration of several remote-sensing cloud observing instruments (some of which are from the IDP project). In situ cloud observations are critical to the success of this IOP. Enhanced soundings are required at the central facility.
