  • New Cloud Radar Product Available From EPCAPE and CAPE-k Campaigns

    The three images illustrate the KAZRARSCL EPCAPE product for September 10, 2023. From top to bottom are time-versus-height displays of cloud boundaries, hydrometeor best-estimate reflectivity (after clutter removal), and mean Doppler velocity (the negative sign indicates motion toward radar). Images are from Karen Johnson, Brookhaven National Laboratory. The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) User Facility has…

  • Doppler Lidar Data Products Released for 2 ARM Campaigns

    Time-height displays show a) wind speed and b) wind direction from DLPROF-WIND on October 30, 2023, on the Ellen Browning Scripps Memorial Pier in La Jolla, California, during the EPCAPE campaign. Images are courtesy of Rob Newsom, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) User Facility operates Doppler lidars (DLs) at its fixed…

  • Cloud Type Classification Product Available for EPCAPE and CAPE-k

    Time-height displays show reflectivity (top), cloud types (middle), and precipitation (bottom) on February 1, 2024, during the EPCAPE campaign in La Jolla, California. Image is provided by Krista Gaustad, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The Cloud Type Classification value-added product (CLDTYPE VAP) is now available for the 2023–2024 Eastern Pacific Cloud Aerosol Precipitation Experiment (EPCAPE) in…

  • Micropulse Lidar Cloud Mask Machine Learning VAP Released for SAIL, CAPE-k

    This sample quicklook plot from the SAIL ARM Mobile Facility site shows the log of the normalized relative backscatter (log10 NRB), linear depolarization ratio (LDR), and cloud mask from the MPLCMASKML value-added product for March 16, 2022. In addition, the plot contains the machine learning model’s confidence in its prediction, as well as cloud base…
