Venue: Forschungszentrum Jülich
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
This workshop on ground-based microwave radiometer observations is organized within the ACTRIS Centre for Cloud Remote Sensing (CCRES). The University of Cologne is hosting the microwave radiometer unit of CCRES which has the goal to ensure high-quality observations within the whole ACTRIS network. The workshop takes place at the Research Centre Jülich, where JOYCE (Jülich Observatory of Cloud Remote Sensing) is located. JOYCE is operated by the University of Cologne as an ACTRIS national facility for cloud remote sensing and is also part of the E-Profile program.
This workshop is focused on all aspects of microwave radiometer operation, calibration, quality control and data processing. A special focus is given on network operation in ACTRIS and E-Profile.
