SAIL-Net CloudPuck CCN Data
- ORNL
SAIL-Net is a DOE funded project in the East River Watershed near Crested Butte, Colorado with the goal of advancing our understanding of aerosol-cloud interactions in complex, mountainous regions. Through the deployment of a network of six low cost microphysics nodes in Fall 2021 in the same domain at the SAIL campaign, SAIL-Net provides data on aerosol size distributions, cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), and ice nucleations particles (INP). This network enables the investigation of small-scale variations in complex terrain.
This specific dataset provides the cleaned data recorded from the CloudPuck, an in house instrument made by Handix Scientific that counts CCN concentrations. The CloudPuck was deployed at the sites for the summer/fall of 2022 before winter conditions were too harsh to maintain the instrument. For more information on the the CloudPuck or how the raw data are processed, see the read me.
