2DC and 2DP Size Distribution Data in NetCDF format

Project:

Summary

This dataset consists of cloud particle size distributions from two wing-mounted instruments installed on the NCAR C-130 aircraft during ACE-1: the PMS Two-Dimensional Cloud probe (2D-C), and the PMS Two-Dimensional Precipitation probe (2D-P).  The raw data were reprocessed in 2025 using the NCAR/MMM SODA-1 data processing software.
