Met Office LIDARNET St Helena Vaisala CT25k ceilometer cloud base and backscatter data
Cloud base and backscatter data from the Met Office's Vaisala Ct25k ceilometer located at St Helena, British Overseas Territory. The Met Office's laser cloud base recorders network (LCBRs), or ceilometers, returns a range of products for use in forecasting and hazard detection. The backscatter profiles can allow detection of aerosol species such as volcanic ash where suitable instrumentation is deployed.
