Abstract:
The dataset contains daily nc-files of the Cloudnet target categorization during Polarstern cruise PS106.
The data is retrieved using the instrument synergystic approach Cloudnet (Illingworth, 2007 doi:10.1175/BAMS-88-6-883 ).
This dataset is an aggregation of data from cloud radar, lidar, a numerical forecast model and optionally a rain gauge and microwave radiometer. It is intended to facilitate the application of synergistic cloud-retrieval algorithms by performing a number of the preprocessing tasks that are common to these algorithms. Each of the observational datasets has been interpolated onto the same grid, although the model data are provided on a reduced height grid. Radar reflectivity has been corrected for attenuation, where possible, and two additional fields have been added: \"category_bits\" contains a categorization of the targets in each pixel and \"quality_bits\" indicates the quality of the data at each pixel. Finally, estimates of the random and systematic errors in reflectivity factor and attenuated backscatter are provided.
