This dataset contains retrievals of bulk fog particle phase and effective radius generated using the mixed-phase cloud property retrieval algorithm (MIXCRA), during twelve case studies of supercooled radiation fog at Summit Station in central Greenland. MIXCRA uses optimal estimation to retrieve fog microphysical properties at 5-min intervals from downwelling spectral longwave radiation measured by an Atmospheric emitted radiance interferometer (AERI). These data and retrievals were generated as part of the ICECAPS-ACE project (The Integrated Characterization of Energy, Clouds, Atmospheric state, and Precipitation at Summit: erosol Cloud Experiment). See linked references for more information about the implementation of MIXCRA, the AERI measurements and complementary datasets. ...
