Description
Summary:Data used to generate figures and calculations for the publication "What are the similarities and differences in marine boundary layer cloud and drizzle microphysical properties during the ACE-ENA and MARCUS field campaigns?" This study investigates cloud and drizzle microphysics during the MARCUS field campaign in the Southern Ocean and the ACE-ENA field campaign in the Azores. This data is produced by a retrieval algorithm that decomposes cloud and drizzle vertical profiles observed by surface-based remote sensors. Abstract: This study compares macrophysical and microphysical properties of single-layered, liquid-dominant MBL clouds from the Measurements of Aerosols, Radiation, and Clouds over the Southern Ocean (MARCUS) (above 60°S) and the ARM East North Atlantic (ENA) site during the Aerosol and Cloud Experiments in Eastern North Atlantic (ACE-ENA) field campaign. A total of 1,136 (16.5% of clouds) and 6,034 5-min cloud samples are selected from MARCUS and ARM ENA in this study. MARCUS clouds have higher ...
