Abstract:
The dataset contains daily nc-files of the Cloudnet target classification during Polarstern cruise PS106 based on:
- 35.5 GHz Cloud radar MIRA,
- Multiwavelength Raman polarization lidar PollyXT,
- Polarstern radiosonde data
- OceanRAIN optical disdrometer ODM470,
- Microwave radiometer.
The data is retrieved using the instrument synergystic approach Cloudnet (Illingworth, 2007 https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/10.1175/BAMS-88-6-883 ).
This variable is a simplification of the bitfield \"category_bits\" in the target categorization and data quality dataset. It provides the 9 main atmospheric target classifications that can be distinguished by radar and lidar.
Target_classification:definition =
0: Clear sky,
1: Cloud droplets only,
2: Drizzle or rain,
3: Drizzle/rain & cloud droplets,
4: Ice,
5: Ice & supercooled droplets,
6: Melting ice,
7: Melting ice & cloud droplets,
8: Aerosol,
9: Insects.
