The CL31 provides a full backscatter profile for data visualization and research purpose. The CL31 beam can be directed either vertically or tilted. The tilting option together with the novel optics design provides enhanced performance during precipitation by improving the protection given by the shield. In the measurement unit, a tilt angle sensor automatically corrects the measured cloud distance reading to vertical cloud base height." }, "relatedTo": { "ob_id": 25053, "uuid": "5f85a1e64e5445faa592d48114f81338", "short_code": "acq", "title": "Vaisala CL31 Ceilometer at Wittering", "abstract": "Vaisala CL31 Ceilometer deployed at Wittering as part of the Met Office's LIDARNET network." } } ] }, { "ob_id": 25085, "uuid": "320e3f48d917488ebbda633a0885a1b8", "short_code": "acq", "title": "Auchencorth Moss Atmospheric Observatory (AU)", "abstract": "The site was setup in 1995 to measure meteorology, trace gases, aerosols and their fluxes.

It has been operational since 1985 as part of a variety of different monitoring networks, including being one of two two Level III 'supersites' located in the UK of the EMEP (the Co-operative Programme for Monitoring and Evaluation of the Long-range Transmission of Air Pollutants in Europe) monitoring network. Hourly and daily measurements are supplemented by long-term integrated measurements from existing DEFRA-funded monitoring networks across the UK (http://www.nilu.no/projects/ccc/network/index.html) Auchencorth Moss is the northern of these two sites (the other is near Harwell, Oxfordshire), which has been used by the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology for several years as an intensive monitoring site for trace gas and particle concentrations and fluxes. The site is based in an area of upland deep peat, with heather and grass cover, and has an extensive fetch to the south-west. The site is located at 55.792160 N, 3.242900W (OS Grid map reference: NT 322166, 656128) and at an altitude of 260m above mean sea level. The site is mostly funded by DEFRA but with significant CEH support, part-funded by EU ACTRIS Programme. The CEH field team carry out routine monitoring work for DEFRA and other funding agency contracts. Intermittent research activities are carried out by scientists both from CEH and other UK and international organisations. As a result of the large number of parameter measured at the site it is part of a wide range of monitoring networks. For details of these networks visit the DEFRA station details page. Details of individual activities should be found either on relevant databases (including the BADC) or by contacting CEH for further information.

It is situated on the North Norfolk coast (52°57’02’’N, 1°07’19’’E, 15 m asl). Weybourne is operated by the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia (UEA) having been established in 1992 by Professor Stuart Penkett (retired 2004) with funding from BP (Norway) plc and NERC. Subsequently, long term monitoring and campaigns have been supported through numerous projects funded by NERC, Department of the Environment (DoE, Defra) and the EU. NCAS has also supported the site since 2002. Much of the instrumentation has come from HEFCE JIF and SRIF funds.\r\n\r\nWeybourne’s location means that it experiences air with a wide range of pollution levels. Predominant south-westerlies bring polluted air from the UK (including from London and the Midlands). At times, especially in anticyclonic conditions, Weybourne experiences polluted air from Europe.

The Fidas® 200 uses the recognized measurement technology of optical light scattering of single particles and is equipped with an LED light source with high intensity (dpmin = 180 nm), highly stable output and long lifetime. The calibration of the system can be checked and adjusted, if necessary, easily and quickly also under field conditions on site at any time with the help of a monodisperse test powder.

The sampling system includes a drying system (intelligent aerosol drying system – IADS) that prevents measurement inaccuracies caused by condensation effects resulting from high humidity. In addition, a weather station provides reliable results for ambient air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity, by request additionally also for wind velocity, wind direction and precipitation. It is also equipped with a filter holder for the insertion of a plane filter (47 or 50 mm in diameter).

It has Doppler and dual-polarisation capability. The radar measures the location and intensity of precipitation, radial winds and polarisation parameters. It works by transmitting pulses of electromagnetic radiation and measuring the amount of energy backscattered to the receiver. The time delay between the transmitted and received pulses enables the range of the object to be determined. In the case of precipitation, the magnitude of the backscattered signal is proportional to the size and number of raindrops. The radar also measures the radial velocity through the Doppler effect. In the absence of precipitation, the radar is sensitive to backscattering from insects, known as clear-air echoes, at close range. These signals provide information on the wind field and the organisation of the boundary-layer e.g. features such as convergence lines can be identified. In addition, the radar has dual-polarisation capability; it simultaneously transmits and receives horizontally- and vertically- polarised waves. Through this technique the radar measures a number of additional variables that provide information on the size and shape of precipitation, identification of non-meteorological echoes, attenuation (a decrease in the signal strength due to the absorption and scattering of the radar signal as it propagates through heavy rain), and alternative methods for calculating rainfall rates. \r\n\r\nThe system has a conventional parabolic antenna of 2.4m diameter and a beamwidth of 1 degree (in the horizontal and vertical), and is operated without a radome. The range resolution is tunable and dependent on the user-selected pulse width (0.5, 1 or 2 micro seconds) and pulse repetition frequency (PRF, 250-2000 Hz). The radar is fully transportable, being mounted on a trailer approved for EU roads that can be towed by a 4x4 vehicle. Signal analysis, data retrievals and data storage are performed by PCs contained within the trailer unit. The radar can be operated via a laptop that connects by wireless, ethernet or 3G to the onboard PCs. The operational software allows the user to set up the radar for deployment and schedule the scanning sequence. The software also provides real-time data visualisation and product generation.\r\n\r\nThe data frequency is dependant on the requirements for the instrument's deployment, but is typically of the order of 10 360-degree scans at various elevations every 5 minutes.\r\n\r\nParameters available in data files from this instrument include: \r\nDOP - degree of polarization; \r\nKDP - specific differential phase shift; \r\nPhiDP - differential phase shift; \r\nRhoHV - co-polar cross correlation coefficient; \r\nSQI - signal quality index or normalized_coherent_power; \r\nV - radial velocity; \r\nW - spectral width; \r\nZDR - differential reflectivity; \r\ndBZ - reflectivity or equivalent reflectivity factor." }, "relatedTo": { "ob_id": 25433, "uuid": "737d39b648f3425d993fbb2cd059ce78", "short_code": "acq", "title": "NCAS mobile X-band data collection for the ICE-D project", "abstract": "The instrument was deployed at the Praia airport, Cape Verde during the ICE-D campaign" } } ] }, { "ob_id": 25439, "uuid": "18f84df32d934058862f2c3990885a4c", "short_code": "acq", "title": "Acquisition Process for: Sentinel 2B Multispectral Instrument (MSI)", "abstract": "The acquisition process for the collection of raw imaging data from the European Space Agency (ESA) Sentinel 2B Multispectral Instrument (MSI).", "imageDetails": [], "mobilePlatformOperation": [], "independentInstrument": [], "instrumentplatformpair_set": [ { "ob_id": 11412, "platform": { "ob_id": 25277, "uuid": "0bbb6de9c89b403aba5a2aacf53ec19e", "short_code": "plat", "title": "Sentinel 2B", "abstract": "Sentinel 2B was launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) to become the second part of the Sentinel series alongside Sentinel 2A.
