GPM Ground Validation Surface Meteorological Station C3VP V1

Description

The GPM Ground Validation Environment Canada (EC) Surface Meteorological Station C3VP dataset consists of meteorological data collected at the Environment Canada (EC) climate station at the Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments (CARE) during the Canadian CloudSat/CALIPSO Validation Project (C3VP) field campaign. The campaign took place in southern Canada in support of multiple science missions, including the NASA GPM mission, in order to improve the modeling and remote sensing of winter precipitation. The GPM GV EC Surface Meteorological Station C3VP data include surface temperature and precipitation data available from November 1, 2005 through March 31, 2007 in Microsoft Excel format.
