During the ACLOUD (Arctic Cloud Observations Using airborne measurements during polar Day) campaign conducted in May/June 2017 meteorological data (temperature, horizontal wind components, air pressure) have been measured using instrumentation that was installed at the nosebooms of both aircraft Polar 5 and Polar 6. This dataset presents the 1Hz resolution data. The high temporal resolution data (at 100 Hz) with all wind components are available here: doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.900880).For each flight the data are given as functions of time and position (including height above ground) along the flight tracks. Listed in this repository are all flights beginning with the test flight in Bremen and the Ferryflights to Longyearbyen. All other measurement flights started and ended in Longyearbyen. Each file represents an entire flight starting well before the first movement of the plane and ending after the final parking position has been reached after landing. The wind measurement is only valid during flight and the ...
