Microwave Radiometer measurements of sky brightness temperature taken at Summit Station, Greenland, 2011 ...
This dataset contains measurements of downwelling brightness temperature at 16 frequencies between 22.2 and 150 GHz at approximately 5 s temporal resolution. The observations were made by two radiometers (from Radiometer Physics GmbH) that are time-synced. This dataset contains only sky brightness t...
