  • Updated Surface Cloud Grid Data Now Available

    The Surface Cloud Grid value-added product (SFCCLDGRID VAP) has transitioned from evaluation to production. In support of that, the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility reprocessed historical data with the latest version of the VAP to meet current ARM data file standards. Also, new data have been generated from the production version of the VAP.…

  • Satellite-Aligned Version of Ka-Band ARM Zenith Radar Product Now Available

    The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility has released a satellite-aligned version of its widely used Ka-Band ARM Zenith Radar Active Remote Sensing of CLouds (KAZRARSCL) product. The new value-added product (VAP) aligns radar reflectivities from KAZRARSCL with those from the well-characterized Cloud Profiling Radar operating on NASA’s CloudSat satellite. Because reliable external calibration sources…

  • New Data Set Available From COMBLE Campaign

    Now available in the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Data Center are calculated back trajectories for identified cold-air outbreak cases from the Cold-Air Outbreaks in the Marine Boundary Layer Experiment (COMBLE). Back trajectories are commonly used to determine the origin of air masses observed at a given location. The ARM user facility conducted the COMBLE field…
