Keywords: Cloud Droplet Distribution,Aerosol Particle Properties,Cloud Droplet Concentration/Size

Description

The Cloud Microphysics dataset consists of particle size distributions from three instruments, the 2D-P (two dimensional precipitation probe), the 2D-C (two dimensional cloud probe) and the FSSP (Forward Scattering Spectrometer Probe). These three instruments yield precipitation, hydrometeor and aerosol sizes ranging from 0.3-6400 micrometers. Data is in the form of images and ascii tables.
