cops_supr_mwrad_iwvlwp_d: integrated water vapour and liquid water path from radiometer run by University Salford

Collier, Chris; Davies, Fay

Dataset
Summary
Integrated Water Vapour and Liquid Water Path are measured with the radiometer in vertical pointing mode. The measurements are made every 20 seconds except when the radiometer was in scan mode, (scans were set for 32 minutes passed each hour and lasted approx 10 minutes) or calibration mode (set to run at approx 50 minutes passed each hour). Data started at 14:48 UTC on 13/06/07 and ended 17:00 UTC on 15/08/07.

Description
Data until 26/07/07 at 09:09 UTC was contaminated by moisture (rain and dew) present on the external cover due to the failure of the dew blower. After this time moisture was removed periodically by hand.
