BAMEX: ARM Raman Lidar Best Estimate Data

Summary

This data set contains 10 minute resolution precipitable water vapor along with vertical profiles of water vapor mixing ratio, relative humidity, linear depolarization ratio, and aerosol scattering ratio, from the Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains (SGP) Raman Lidar (RL). The RL is located at the ARM Central Facility near Lamont, OK. This data set covers the period from 20 May to 07 July 2003. The data are in netCDF format.
