CAMEX-4 MIPS MICROWAVE PROFILING RADIOMETER V1

The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) Mobile Integrated Profiling System (MIPS) is a mobile atmospheric profiling system. It includes a 915 MHz Doppler profiler, lidar ceilometer, 12 channel microwave profiling radiometer, Doppler Sodar, Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS), Field Mills, and surface observing station. The 12 channel microwave profiling radiometer provides profiles of temperature, water vapor and liquid water and integrated values of water vapor and liquid water from the surface to 10km every ~ 15 minutes. Cloud base temperature is also measured.
