newvap_adim_avio_met_chem_d: DIMONA aircraft measurements (NEWVAP) over supersite M and Murg valley.

Neininger, Bruno

Dataset
Summary
Contains data from Dimona Aircraft related to the NEWVAP project during COPS Campaign. The aircraft measurements were performed on 26.07.07,31.07.07 and 01.08.07 to investigate the potential of a passive microwave profiler for the detection of the spatial variability of water vapor in the troposphere. For that purpose the Metair-Dimona mapped the water vapor (and a lot of additional meteorological and chemical variables) within the Murg Valley. The flight pattern was star like with 6 vertical planes spaced by 30deg in azimuth angle. In each azimuth plane the aircraft was descending (or ascending) from around 3000 m to 50 m above ground. At the same time HATPRO (at supersite M) performed synchronous elevation scans in the azimuth planes and in between some azimuth scans (at fixed 30 degree elevation) to observe both the temporal and spatial variability.

DIMONA flights for the NEWVAP project were sponsored by EUFAR.
