Identifier	DOI: https://doi.org/10.5065/D60R9MQS
Data Quality	final
Versions	1.0 (2011-05-17) 1.1 (2022-06-01): Processing Update:   Correction to 2DC and 2DP data from previous merge. There is an updated algorithm in nimbus resulting in 2DC concentrations 20% higher and 2DP concentrations 20% to 80% higher. FSSP: Removed overflow & coincidence correction resulting in approximately 10% reduction in total concentrations and liquid water. 260X: Updated FirstBin from 1 to 5 resulting in a reduction in total concentrations ranging from 20% to 90% in total concentrations.  Liquid water remains similar to the prior version of the data, as most 260x water is generally in bins 5 and larger. Please contact Chris Webster (cjw@ucar.edu) with any questions regarding this update.  (Only the current version of the data is available to order. If you have questions about a prior version, please email us.)
