MeasurementS
Measurements currently being monitored by our group:
ALVICE Raman Lidar - With funding supplied by the National Science Foundation under the HBCU Excellence in Research program, the ALVICE Raman Lidar is run in support of GRUAN launch activities at HU Beltsville.
Surface met stations - we are testing Ambient Weather WS-5000 stations for potential field deployment use and for ground measurements at HU Beltsville. Current conditions at HU Beltsville can be accessed from the link above.
GNSS Station - total column water and meteorological measurements from a station provided by GFZ in support of the GRUAN activities at Beltsville.
Other HUBC Measurements - we provide near realt time updates on the surface met, MDE wind profiler, Radiometrics microwave radiometer, Lufft ceilometer and include data from a recent sonde launch.
Archived MFRSR Measurements and Retrievals - a set of three Yankee MFRSR were used in an experiment that compared measurements, calibration and retrievals between the HUBC site and a tower at 1030m in the Shenendoah National Park. The results of that effort, which resulted in a masters degree for Mr. Ruben Vassar, are preserved here.
