https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/13.124

Summary
The Depolarization and Backscatter - Unattended Lidar (DABUL) is a pulsed
laser-radar operating at 523 nm wavelength. Range resolution is 30 m, and time
resolution is as short as 1 s. This dataset contains three final products:
Lidar returned-power netcdf data files, Linear depolarization ratio netcdf
files, and cloud boundary mask of linear depolarization ratio. All of the
final products have been averaged for 10 minutes.
