MAC-LWP ATBD

by tsikorsk » Fri Apr 17, 2026 4:57 am America/New_York

Hello,
I am interested in information about the MAC-LWP dataset (https://disc.gsfc.nasa.gov/datasets/MACLWP_mean_1/summary). Elsaesser et.al. (2017) wrote a paper (Elsaesser, G. S., C. W. O’Dell, M. D. Lebsock, R. Bennartz, T. J. Greenwald, and F. J. Wentz, 2017: The Multisensor Advanced Climatology of Liquid Water Path (MAC-LWP). J. Climate, 30, 10193–10210, https://doi.org/10.1175/JCLI-D-16-0902.1.) about this dataset. In this article there is a reference to a MAC-LWP ATBD (Elsaesser, G. S., C. W. O’Dell, and J. Teixeira, 2015: Multi-Sensor Advanced Climatology of Liquid Water Path (MAC-LWP). NASA MEaSUREs Algorithm Theoretical Basis Doc., 15 pp.)

Is this ATDB available and could you please provide it?

Best regards
