RALMO Water Vapour Climatology

This climatology product has been presented in Hicks-Jalali et al. 2020 [1]. We provide the full data file here to facilitate further comparisons with the data set. All water vapour measurements in this file were made with the RAman Lidar for Meteorological Observation (RALMO), operated by MeteoSwiss at the aerological station in Payerne, Switzerland. Details regarding RALMO’s design can be found in Dinoev et al. 2013 [2], and a summary of the climatology processing can be found in Hicks-Jalali et al. 2020. We use all nighttime measurements taken in the period from Jan 2009-Aug 2019 in this climatology. Please see the Metadata file for references and measurement details.
