Abstract:
This data collection unites the individual data sets of the Humidity profiles and Arctic Mixed-phase clouds as seen by Airborne W- and G-band radars (HAMAG) campaign. The overarching objective of HAMAG was to test the University of Cologne's novel G-band radar GRaWAC: G-band Radar for Water vapor and Arctic Clouds aboard AWI's Polar 6 (C-GHGF) aircraft. GRaWAC was be embedded in a suite of remote sensing instruments (microwave radiometer, lidar, W-band radar) accompanied by dropsondes and was flownin a dual-bellypod with the W-band radar.
