MICROBASE is a baseline retrieval of cloud microphysical properties. It uses a combination of observations from the cloud radar, ceilometer, micropulse lidar, microwave radiometer, and balloon-borne radiosonde soundings in order to produce instantaneous vertical profiles of cloud liquid water content (LWC), cloud ice water content (IWC), liquid cloud particle effective radius (LIQRE), and ice cloud particle effective radius (ICERE). Uncertainites are also produced by the VAP. The inputs are by the following VAPs: Active Remote Sensing of Clouds (ARSCL) Merged Sounding (MERGESONDE) Microwave Radiometer Retrievals (MWRRET) The output are daily files.
