(www.cesar-observatory.nl)The KNMI HATPRO radiometer is installed at the
Cabauw Observatory and operated since May 2006. The brightness
temperatures provided are the values as measured by the radiometer
without any post-processing applied. The radiometer is calibrated with
liquid nitrogen at half yearly intervals. Meteo variables measured
with the sensors attached to the radiometer are included, as well as a
quality flag.nonenone51.9684.929-0.71see HATPRO manual (available from
http://www.radiometer-physics.de)2005Rose, T. et al.A network suitable microwave radiometer for operational
monitoring of the cloudy atmosphereThe implementation of an operational network of microwave
radiometers is presently hampered by the cost and complexity of the
available instruments. For this reason, the definition and design of
a low-cost microwave radiometer suitable for automatic, high-quality
observations of liquid water path (LWP) were one objective of the
BALTEX cloud liquid water network: CLIWA-NET. In the course of the
project, it turned out that a full profiling radiometer with 14
channels can be produced at only about 30% higher cost than a
classical dual-channel IWV/LWP radiometer. The profiling capability
allows simultaneous observations of LWP and the lower tropospheric
(0–5 km) humidity and temperature profiles with a temporal
resolution of less than 10 s and a vertical resolution from 100 m to
1 km in the planetary boundary layer depending on height and
atmospheric conditions. The latter is possible due to an elevation
scan capability and by the implementation of a new filter bank
design [...]Atmos. Res., Special issue: CLIWA-NET: Observation and
