ISS Surface Meteorology, Ceilometer, PurpleAir and Webcam Data Products

Surface Meteorology, Vaisala CL61 Ceilometer, PurpleAir aerosol data products and webcam imagary collected during the Multi-point Monin-Obukhov similarity horizontal array turbulence study (M2HATS). Surface meteorology sensors were mounted on a 3m and 10m tower. Three webcams were employed and mounted on the 10m tower, the Windcube lidar, and the ISFS tower. Refer for the data report downloadable from this landing page for the details. Surface met. and CL61 data files are in netCDF format. PurpleAir dataset is provided in CSV format. Webcam images are jpegs. The following datasets are available for download: Surface meteorology
