DATA_SET_TERSE_DESCRIPTION
DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION Data Set Overview : Spectral hygrometer (SHYG) data were gathered on September 29, 1989 at Lunar Lake. The spectral hygrometer provided the ratio Rsh:L(935)/L(880), where L(935) is the radiance at 935 nm. The measurement is acquired by aiming the optics at the sun. The Spectral Hygrometer data files consist of data acquired on September 29, 1989. Columns are time in PDT, ratio of L(935) / L(880) for instrument SH015, time in PDT and corresponding ratio for instrument SH004. The conversion from spectral hygrometer ratio to column water abundance was calibrated prior to GRSFE for column water abundance using more than 100 radiosonde observations. The line of sight precipitable water, WLOS, in centimeters, is: WLOS : W + (W/6.8)**3, where: W : 13.7/((10**1.38)*Rsh). The uncertainty is +/- 10%. To adjust the expression for site elevation: WLOS(corr) : WLOS * SQRT (P0/P), where P0 : pressure at sea level and P : pressure at site elevation.
