International audience From 1997 to 2003, noctilucent clouds (NLC) were observed by lidar above the ALOMAR observatory in Northern Norway (69° N) during a total of 1880 measurement hours. This data set contains NLC signatures for 640h, covering all local times, even during the highest solar backgrou...
