Millimeter Cloud Radar measurements taken at Summit Station, Greenland, 2012

This data set contains measurements from a Millimeter Cloud Radar (MMCR) that is deployed at Summit Station, Greenland as part of the Integrated Characterization of Energy, Clouds, Atmospheric state, and Precipitation at Summit (ICECAPS) Project. The MMCR points near-vertically and provides estimates of radar reflectivity, mean Doppler velocity, and Doppler spectrum width, as well as full Doppler spectra. Detailed information on these parameters and other aspects of the dataset are included in the netCDF header information for each file. The MMCR is owned by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Earth System Research Laboratory. Field operations support is provided by the National Science Foundation's Arctic Observing Network (AON) Program.

本数据集包含部署于格陵兰萨米特站（Summit Station）的毫米波云雷达（Millimeter Cloud Radar, MMCR）的观测数据，该雷达作为“萨米特站能量、云、大气状态与降水综合表征（ICECAPS）”计划的组成部分投入运行。该毫米波云雷达采用近垂直指向模式，可提供雷达反射率、平均多普勒速度、多普勒谱宽及完整多普勒谱的估算结果。上述参数及数据集的其他相关细节均收录于各文件的网络通用数据格式（netCDF）头部信息中。该毫米波云雷达归美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）地球系统研究实验室所有，其野外作业支持由美国国家科学基金会北极观测网（Arctic Observing Network, AON）项目提供。
