Vaisala sounding products are used by meteorological organizations all around the world to measure weather in the Earth’s atmosphere, from the boundary layer to the upper atmosphere.

Micro Rain Radar

Fallen Leaf — Fri, 28 Jun 2019 13:34:37 +0000

The MRR Micro Rain Radar is a compact 24 GHz FM-CW-radar for the measurement of profiles of drop size distributions and – derived from this – rain rates, liquid water content and characteristic falling velocity resolved into 30 range gates.

Doppler Aerosol Lidar

Fallen Leaf — Fri, 28 Jun 2019 13:34:29 +0000

This is a 1.55 μm eye-safe (Class 1M) scanning micro pulsed LiDAR providing profiles of aerosol backscatter coefficient (β) in units of m^-1sr^-1and radial velocity in ms^-1 at user specified azimuth and elevation angles.

HATPRO Radiometer

Fallen Leaf — Fri, 28 Jun 2019 13:34:29 +0000

The HATPRO instrument is a stand-alone system for automated weather-station use under nearly all environmental conditions. Full atmospheric profiles are derived, retrieved data as well as raw data are stored. A variety of retrieval algorithms (custom designed or global standard algorithms) can be selected.

Cimel Sun Photometer

Fallen Leaf — Fri, 28 Jun 2019 13:34:21 +0000

A multi-channel, automatic sun-and-sky scanning radiometer that measures the direct solar irradiance and sky radiance at the Earth’s surface.
