I hadn't put up any pictures of the MSF (mobile science facility) that Elissa and I took over after Hannah left. It's run by a project called ICECAPS that is mainly from CU and Univ of Wisc. It deals a whole lot with clouds and is trying to see how liquid and ice clouds play into the heat budget when it comes to climate change. So there are different lasers looking at the clouds and the air above station
 |
| micropulse lidar laser that measures cloud heights and cloud composition |
 |
| ceilometer that measures cloud heights |
 |
| PAERI which measures cloud properties |
 |
| MMCR which measures upwelling and downwelling precipitation and water vapor movement |
 |
| MMCR |
 |
| CAPABLE laser measuring cloud polarization |

| part of the PAERI |
 |
| WVR |
 |
| SODAR measuring different layers of the air |
