Multi-function Airborne Raman Lidar (MARLi) Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/638.021

Summary
Vertical profile data and imagery of water vapor mixing ratio, aerosol/cloud
lidar scattering ratio, lidar depolarization ratio, and temperature from the
Multi-function Airborne Raman Lidar (MARLi) that was deployed on the NSF NCAR
C-130 aircraft for the CAESAR campaign.

No data are available for RF08 (25 Mar).
