Full description

Several cloud and precipitation instruments were deployed to Davis in November 2018 in order to characterise various microphysical processes of Antarctic precipitation. This dataset provides the post-processed data from three key instruments, as used in the Guyot et al. (2022) submitted manuscript. In brief:

1) A merged cloud radar - lidar data product provides vertical profiles of cloud phase at 2-minute resolution, using the lidar and radar results for the entire summer campaign. (Bureau of Meteorology's RMAN lidar and W-band cloud radar)
2) Calibrated lidar backscatter and calibrated radar reflectivity are also provided within the lidar/radar product at same resolution.
3) Ceilometer (University of Canterbury) daily backscatter files for the summer campaign.
4) Radiosonde observations of the standard meteorological variables collected from radiosondes launched at Davis for this summer period by the Bureau of Meteorology.
