MIPS Ceilometer Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/113.086

Summary
This data set contains daily vertical time series plots of the ceilometer
backscatter coincident with the MIPS profiling system during the PLOWS field
seasons. Images are available for 2009 (11, 17, 18 February; 7, 8, 28, 29
March; 16-18, 24-25 November; and 2-3, 7-9, 18-19 December) and 2010 (16-17
