The Global Hydrology Resource Center has published updated versions of two related datasets from the GPM Cold-season Precipitation Experiment (GCPEx) campaign, which took place from January 15 - February 29, 2012 in Ontario, Canada:
· GPM Ground Validation UND Citation Navigation Data GCPEX V2 (DOI: 10.5067/GPMGV/GCPEX/NAV/DATA002)
· GPM Ground Validation UND Citation Cloud Microphysics GCPEX V2 (DOI: 10.5067/GPMGV/GCPEX/MULTIPLE/DATA203).
The UND Citation is a Cessna Citation II Research aircraft, owned and operated by the University of North Dakota (UND), which carried a variety of research instruments during the GCPEX campaign. The Cloud Microphysics dataset includes measurements of cloud microphysics, state of atmosphere parameters, bulk aerosols, three-dimensional winds, and turbulence. Data were collected on twelve flights between January 19, 2012 and February 24, 2012. Both datasets have updated navigation data and Cloud Particle Imaging (CPI) probe images are now available for the Cloud Microphysics dataset.
