DYCOMS-II is the name given to a field campaign which proposes to collect data for the purposes of testing large-eddy simulations of nocturnal tratocumulus. DYCOMS-II is based on measurements taken from the NCAR EC-130Q in and around nocturnal marine stratocumulus. The experiment consists of 9 flights out of North Island Naval Air Station (just west of San Diego) between July 7 and July 28, 2001. Eight of these flights were nocturnal.
The data presented here are from 7 July 2001 to 28 July 2001 and cover a region from 25N to 40N latitude and from 130W to 115W longitude.
Selected variables from the SSM/I are available here for display as GIF images, or for downloading to your local disk. If you are downloading data, please see the browse data format description. Also take note of the version and reference information. The full documentation for the SSM/I data can be found at the SSM/I webpage.

SSM/I data and images are produced by Remote Sensing Systems and sponsored by the NASA Pathfinder Program for early Earth Observing System (EOS) products.
