SPLASH Field Study; NOAA NSSL CLAMPS2 TROPoe Retrievals from 2021-10-21 to 2022-01-18 (NCEI Accession 0303080)
Description
From fall 2021 through summer 2023, NOAA and research partners conducted a field study (SPLASH - the Study of Precipitation, the Lower Atmosphere and Surface for Hydrometeorology). This field study established a state-of-the-art observing network in the East River watershed of the Colorado mountains with a goal of advancing weather and water prediction capabilities in areas with complex terrain. The ultimate goal of this project is improved prediction of weather and water in the Colorado mountains and beyond to inform societal preparedness and response. SPLASH was complemented by a concurrent Surface Atmosphere Integrated Field Laboratory (SAIL) field campaign led by the Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility. These files contain 24-hour periods of retrieved thermodynamic profiles derived from observations collected by the CLAMPS2 Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI). These retrievals were processed in the IDL (e.g., the AERIoe version) of the TROPoe algorithm. Quicklook imagery is included. The AERI is capable of measuring IR radiances throughout the depth of the atmosphere with a wavenumber resolution 1 cm-1 and temporal resolution of ~20 seconds on a clear sky day.
