This data set contains the cloud particle size distributions (PSDs) and bulk properties data from the Fast2DC probe that was flown on-board the NSF/NCAR HIAPER GV aircraft during the 15 flights for the SOCRATES (Southern Ocean Clouds, Radiation, Aerosol Transport Experimental Study) project over the Southern Ocean region from 15 January to 24 February 2018 (except for RF02). The bulk properties include total number concentration, liquid water content, and ice water content. The data are in NetCDF4 format.
