TEAMx-PC22 (TEAMx pre-campaing 2022) – GeoSphere Austria ceilometer data
Description
ABSTRACT
GeoSpere Austria is running operationally a ceilometer (Vaisala CL51) next to the meteorological station at Kufstein, Austria. Ceilometer data collected during the TEAMx pre-campaign 2022 (TEAMx-PC22) are provided here. Standard meteorological data is available on the GeoSphere Austria data hub.
The aim of TEAMx-PC22 was to test new instruments, new instrument configurations and new measurement sites to support the planning of the main TEAMx observational campaign (TOC) in 2024/2025. More details about TEAMx can be found at http://www.teamx-programme.org as well as in Serafin et al. (2020) and in Rotach et al. (2022).
DATA SET DESCRIPTION
The ceilometer (Vaisala CL51) is operated at Kufstein next to the meteorological station (12.1628°E 47.5753°N 490m asl).
Provided are monthly NetCDF data sets, without data corrections.
