Aerosol Particle Spectrometer with Polarization Detection (APSPD) Data
[Baumgardner, Darrel (DMT)]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/220.053

Summary
The APSPD is an optical spectrometer that measures side scattered light from
individual aerosol particles that pass through a focused laser beam, in the
optical equivalent diameter range from 0.5 to 20 μm.This dataset contains
ASPSD data collected during the ICE-T project.
