HIPPO-1 Merged 1-second Meteorology, Atmospheric Chemistry, and Aerosol Data. Version 1.0

This data set provides merged 1-second data products from Mission 1 of the HIAPER Pole-to-Pole Observations (HIPPO) of the Carbon Cycle and Greenhouse Gases Study. Mission 1 took place during January of 2009. These merged data products were derived by combining the NSF/NCAR G-V aircraft state parameters for position, time, temperature, pressure, and wind speed with meteorological, atmospheric chemistry and aerosol measurements made by several teams of investigators. Investigators reported most data at a 1-second interval. The data files are in space delimited format. The NCAR/EOL Research Aviation Facility has recently completed a review and upgrade of its existing algorithms for data processing to incorporate recent improvements that have become available for specific instruments. HIPPO-2 LRT data have been reprocessed and rereleased with these new upgrades. For more info see the Appendix to HIPPO-II Project Manager's Report: Reprocessing. PLEASE NOTE: The updated LRT data are NOT included in this merge.
