Abstract:
This dataset contains ceilometer data at the Princess Elisabeth station, East Antarctica (71°57'S - 23°21'E) for 2012.
blowing snow code:
1=blowing snow +cloud/precipitation
2=blowing snow + clear sky
3=absence blowing snow + cloud/precipitation
4=absence of blowing snow + clear sky
5=stormy weather (blowing snow is assumed)
