Hydrometeor Mask and Cloud Boundaries Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/487.026 Summary This dataset contains Hydrometeor Mask and Cloud Boundaries data calculated by combining data collected by the NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER (Gulfstream-V High-performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research) (N677F) Cloud Radar (HCR) and High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) during the CSET (Cloud Systems Evolution in the Trades) project from 1 July 2015 through 15 August 2012. The dataset also contains thresholded HCR Doppler spectral moments and the HSRL backscatter. These data are in NetCDF format.
