Abstract:
The data set contains daily files of atmospheric radiation measured during zenith (mwr00) and boundary layer (mwrBL00) mode by the HATPRO microwave radiometer (see Rose et al., 2005) onboard the Polarstern during cruise PS122 (MOSAiC expedition). The data covers the range October 2019 to October 2020. The atmospheric radiation measurements are given as brightness temperatures in seven K band (22.24 - 31.4 GHz) and seven V band (51.26 - 58 GHz) channels. The elevation scans have been perfomed approximately every 30 minutes while zenith measurements (elevation angle at 90 degrees) fill the remaining time. The brightness temperatures are provided for all available times so that it is up to the user to decide whether or not to use the values if quality flags are set. Additionally included are temperature, pressure and humidity measurements at the instrument location as well as quality flags characterizing the instrument and retrieval performance.
