DYNAMO: NOAA P-3 Cloud Microphysics 1-Hz Data

Summary

This data set contains time series of cloud drop number concentration from flights of the NOAA P-3 N43RF during DYNAMO operations over the Indian Ocean from 11 November to 8 December 2011. Measurements were taken by a Droplet Measurement Technologies (DMT) Cloud Imaging Probe (CIP) and a DMT Precipitation Imaging Probe (PIP). The data are in netCDF format and were provided by Patrick Chuang and Mikael Witte of the University of California Santa Cruz.
