The data volume for each simulated unit data set (i.e., an integration of 12-hour) mainly includes 12 atmospheric 3-D parameters (temperature, water vapor, horizontal and vertical velocity, pressure, long-wave and short-wave radiation rates, and five different cloud species, cloud water, rain, cloud ice, snow and graupel), along with the upward/downward short-wave and long-wave radiation fluxes at both top and bottom boundaries, which are generated at a 12-second time step, and saved with an hourly sample rate.  

The cloud library data web portal/access is currently under construction. In the near future, potential users will be able to acquire data from our cloud library through a simple web download.
