Brief description

This record contains all the data used in the analysis of a cirrus cloud case study from 14 - 15 June 2011 at Davis.

Data in separate directories are as follows:

1) The lidar data are contained in a single netCDF and include the scattering ratio, aerosol extinction, aerosol backscatter, molecular backscatter, and uncorrected scattering ratio.

2) MODIS satellite data used in the radiative transfer calculations

3) A file containing the radar-derived tropopause altitudes (km) in two-hourly time-steps

4) A netCDF file for each of the radiosondes during this case study, including full documentation within each file

5) The radiative transfer code used
