NY-ECLIPSE-2024: MicroPulse Differential Absorption Lidars (MPD) for studying the atmospheric impacts of the total solar eclipse in 2024
Summary
Three NCAR/EOL temperature and water vapor MPDs were deployed during the 2024 North American total solar eclipse (TSE) in New York State (NYS) collocated with three NYS Mesonet (NYSM) super-sites. Coincident surface, profiling and flux measurements were made. The primary scientific objective were to collect continuous and high-resolution upper air data from MPDs and NYSM profiler instruments along with radiosondes to study atmospheric responses to the TSE.
