Daily NetCDF files from the Millimeter Cloud Radar deployed at Eureka, Nunavut, Canada. Fields include reflectivity, Doppler velocity and spectral width. Derived quantities include cloud layer information (e.g., cloud top and bottom). Instrument deployed by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Earth System Research Laboratory (ESRL) Physical Sciences Division (PSD). This dataset is an ongoing collection and is updated daily. Matt Shupe is the PI for this data. As an additional resource for cloud properties derived from a combination of Millimeter Cloud Radar (MMCR), High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL), and Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) data, go to the following location within the CADIS Portal: Atmosphere/Cloud Properties Across the Arctic Basin from Surface and Satellite Measurements/Cloud occurrence and layering at Arctic atmospheric observatories. Contact Matt Shupe at [e-mail] for questions about the data. This is an International Arctic Systems for Observing the Atmosphere (IASOA) data set.
