Abstract:
During the HALO-(AC)³ campaign in March and April 2022 spectral solar downward irradiances were measured onboard of the High Altitude LOng range research aircraft (HALO) over the Arctic sea ice and ocean using the Spectral Modular Airborne Radiation measurement sysTem (SMART). The data set gives time series of spectral irradiances measured along the flight path of HALO on 17 days. All flights started from Kiruna, Sweden and headed into the Fram Straight and towards the central Arctic. The goal of the campaign was to study warm air intrusions and cold air outbreaks to and from the Arctic and to follow those air masses over several days with remote sensing instrumentation aboard HALO. The first research flight (RF) was RF02. RF01 was the transfer flight from Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany to Kiruna. The irradiance inlet of SMART was actively stabilized and connected to two spectrometers of which one measured radiation in the visible to near infrared range (VNIR) between 180 and 1014 nm and the other radiation in the shortwave to infrared range (SWIR) between 890 and 2200 nm. The data was merged at 990 nm and cut to 320 to 2100 nm because of high uncertainties at the spectrometer edges. The spectral resolution below 900 nm is 1nm and above 5 nm due to technical limitations of the SWIR spectrometer. The data is corrected for the dark current of the spectrometers and calibrated using in field transfer calibrations connected to a laboratory calibration after the campaign.
