Micropulse lidar (MPL) measurements taken at Summit Station, Greenland, 2010

This data set contains measurements from a MicroPulse LIDAR (MPL) that is deployed at Summit Station, Greenland as part of the Integrated Characterization of Energy, Clouds, Atmospheric state, and Precipitation at Summit (ICECAPS) Project. Detailed information on these parameters and other aspects of the dataset are included in the netCDF header information for each file. The LIDAR is owned by the US Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program. Field operations support is provided by the National Science Foundation's Arctic Observing Network (AON) Program. Together these products will augment similar data sets that are produced at other locations across the Arctic.

本数据集收录了部署于格陵兰萨米特站的微脉冲激光雷达（MicroPulse LIDAR, MPL）的观测数据，该设备作为“萨米特站点能量、云、大气状态与降水综合表征（Integrated Characterization of Energy, Clouds, Atmospheric state, and Precipitation at Summit, ICECAPS）”项目的组成部分布设运行。各数据文件的netCDF（网络通用数据格式）头文件中，详细记载了本数据集涉及的各项参数及其他相关信息。该激光雷达系统隶属于美国能源部大气辐射测量（Atmospheric Radiation Measurement, ARM）计划，野外作业支持由美国国家科学基金会北极观测网络（Arctic Observing Network, AON）计划提供。上述数据集产品将对北极其他地区产出的同类数据集形成有效补充。
