First ISCCP Regional Experiment (FIRE) Arctic Cloud Experiment (ACE) Radiation Measurement System (RAMS)

Metadata Updated: December 6, 2023

This data set consists of data provided by Scripps' Radiation Measurement System (RAMS) flown onboard the NCAR C-130 aircraft during the FIRE ACE field campaign.The First ISCCP Regional Experiments have been designed to improve data products and cloud/radiation parameterizations used in general circulation models (GCMs). Specifically, the goals of FIRE are (1) to improve basic understanding of the interaction of physical processes in determining life cycles of cirrus and marine stratocumulus systems and the radiative properties of these clouds during their life cycles and (2) to investigate the interrelationships between the ISCCP data, GCM parameterizations, and higher space and time resolution cloud data.
