Met Office LIDARNET Eskdalemuir Jenoptik CHM15k Nimbus ceilometer cloud base and backscatter data

Cloud base and backscatter data from the Met Office's Jenoptik CHM15k Nimbus ceilometer located at Eskdalemuir, Dumfriesshire, Scotland. 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.
