ACE-1: R/V Discoverer Meteorological and Chemical Measurements [1-minute]

Summary

This dataset consists of continuous meteorological and chemistry measurements taken aboard the R/V Discoverer by Jim Johnson and Tim Bates (NOAA/PMEL). This dataset consists of time, wind speed and direction (relative to the ship only), ultrafine condensation nuclei (> 3 nm), precipitation, and solar radiation measurements. The dataset contains 1-min averages of these parameters. This dataset was processed and quality controlled following the ACE-1 field phase.
