This data set contains raw measurements from a Millimeter Cloud Radar (MMCR) that is deployed at Summit Station, Greenland. This radar operates at 35 GHz (Ka-band) and points vertically with a 0.3 degree beamwidth. Four alternating operational modes are employed to optimally observe different types...
