The Tracing Convective Momentum Transport in Complex Cloudy Atmospheres Experiment - Level 1

The first field campaign from the Tracing Convective Momentum Transport in Complex Cloudy Atmospheres experiment project (CMTRACE) took place in Cabauw, the Netherlands, between September 13th and October 3rd 2021. During this field campaign, two cloud radars and one wind lidar were operated with a similar scanning strategy for deriving wind speed and direction profiles from near the surface up to cloud tops. Here we provide the daily Level 1 data from each instrument. At this level, several processing steps were applied to the raw data to minimize offsets, reduce the number of spurious data and derive wind speed and direction profiles; however, the data from each instrument is kept on its original spatial and temporal resolution. The raw data is available for the users on request from the corresponding author.
