Description

This archive contains 

  1. A python package for pre-processing E-profile ceilometer data, including masking and format conversion, prior to ingenstion into the IFS-COMPO.
  2. A python package for post-processing IFS-COMPO output data, plotting the data, and comparing to observations.
  3. A patch for OpenIFS that contains the newly developed routine for computing the attenuated backscatter coefficient at a wavelength of 910 nm.
  4. Several output figures of the plotting script, as well as data files for station-averaged time-altitude curtains of the attenuated backscatter coefficient.
  5. A file describing the licence under which the codes are being made available.
