Cloud, Aerosol, and Precipitation Spectrometer (CAPS) Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/620.022

Summary
Data from the Cloud, Aerosol, and Precipitation Spectrometer (CAPS) that was
flown on the NASA WB-57 aircraft for the ACCLIP deployment. CAPS provides
measurements of aerosol size distributions. The ACCLIP flights were based out
of Osan Air Base in South Korea and the flights were over the western Pacific
Ocean region during August 2022.

This dataset resides in the NASA LaRC archives.
