| contents | Sub-millimeter (sub-mm, 200 - 1000 GHz) wavelengths contribute a unique capability to fill-in the sensitivity gap between operational visible/infrared (VIS/IR) and microwave (MW) remote sensing for atmosphere cloud ice and snow. Being able of penetrating cloud to measure cloud ice mass and microphysical properties in the middle to upper troposphere, this is a critical spectrum range for us to understand the connection between cloud ice and precipitation processes. As the first space-borne 883 GHz radiometer, IceCube mission was NASA's latest effort in spaceflight demonstration of a commercial sub-mm radiometer technology. Successfully launched from the International Space Station, IceCube is essentially a free-running radiometer and collected valuable 15-month measurements of atmosphere and cloud ice. This dataset contains the Level 1 calibrated brightness temperature measurements from IceCube mission. Data is stored on daily basis with geolocation and time information included. Data format is HDF5 and is self-explanatory. Please contact the authors for any questions regarding using the IceCube data. |
