Acoustic Ice Nucleus Counter Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/534.021

Summary
This dataset contains acoustic ice nuclei data for the Seeded and Natural
Orographic Wintertime clouds – the Idaho Experiment (SNOWIE). The Acoustic Ice
Nucleus Counter (AINC) was developed at the National Center for Atmospheric
Research (NCAR). The location for the AINC deployment, along Idaho State
Highway 21 approximately 80 km (line-of-sight) from Boise, was determined by
Idaho Power Company (IPC). Equipment was deployed on 26 January, and data
collection began late in the day. These data are in Excel spreadsheets with
the extension .xlsx, and there are 2 sets of data included in this dataset.
There are 1 minute and 15 minute data. The frequency of the data in any file
is indicated in the file name. Please see the readme file for more
information.
