Optical Array Probes (OAP) Microphysics Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/619.013

Summary
Airborne measurements during the Experiment of Sea Breeze, Convection,
Aerosol, Precipitation and Environment (ESCAPE) field campaign were conducted
near Houston, Texas between 31 May and 17 June 2022. This dataset contains 1
Hz derived quantities from the 2D-S and HVPS-3 instruments onboard the
National Research Council of Canada (NRC) Convair-580 aircraft. Files are
available in NetCDF format.
