C3VP

The Canadian CloudSat/CALIPSO Validation Project (C3VP) was a collaborative international field campaign that took place in southern Canada during the 2006/2007 winter season. With the help of multiple organizations, including the NASA GPM and PMM science teams, the campaign used various ground-based and airborne instrumentation to thoroughly study cold season precipitation systems and therefore improve the modeling and remote sensing of snowfall. The campaign took place in the vicinity of the Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments (CARE) in the Great Lakes region of Ontario, Canada. The site was operated by the Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC). The main objectives of the campaign were to capture more ground and airborne observations of winter precipitation, to validate data from the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) and NASA CloudSat satellites, and to further improve the remote sensing and modeling of winter precipitation.
