Title

Low Rate Navigation, State Parameter, and Microphysics Flight-Level Data [NCAR/EOL]

Alternative title(s)

226.001

Abstract

This data set includes airborne measurements obtained from the NCAR Research Aviation Facility (RAF) C-130 aircraft (Tail Number: N130AR) during the First Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE-1). This dataset contains low rate navigation, state parameter, and microphysics flight-level data in NetCDF format. These files are the unabridged data from the C130 datasystem, and include numerous raw or uncalibrated chemistry, CN, and CCN variables. Please look for the standalone final datasets for those variables.
