This dataset contains data from the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) cloud product, collocated to wind-advected ship locations and shipping emissions. Most importantly, it includes effective droplet radii, calculated droplet number concentration, liquid water path, and cloud optical depth for locations where clouds have been polluted by shipping and to either side of a ship trajectory. Cloud data in the trajectory is labelled with the variable name only, data on either side additionally with [property]_1 and [property]_3 for the western and eastern side, respectively. The data is ungridded and comes in the form of csv files. It covers the period of 2014-2019.

The dataset is the product of three data sources: AIS data giving ship locations, ERA5 winds used to advect the emissions up to the time of the Aqua and Terra overpasses, as well as the level-2 cloud product MOD06.

This data was collected for the study of shipping aerosols' effect on marine liquid clouds, in particular when the emissions do not produce a satellite-visible ship track, which could be hand-logged.
