Abstract

Supporting data and images for the CWVC EMERALD-2 Campaign based in Darwin, Australia, during September 2002

The dataset contains photographs, plots, high resolution cloud radar data provided by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology and sonde data to support the aircraft measurements made for the CWVC EMERALD-2 Campaign.

The EMERALD projects were airborne measurement campaigns designed to study dynamical, microphysical and infra-red radiative properties of cirrus clouds, using both in-situ and remote measurement techniques. The ARA Grob Egrett T520 aircraft which flew above the cirrus clouds looking down in conjunction with the ARA King Air aircraft below looking up.

These data are part of the NERC Clouds, Water Vapour and Climate (CWVC) programme.
