Short summary
During the Pallas Cloud Experiment (PaCE) in Finland (19–26 September 2022), the Advanced Max Planck CloudKite instrument (MPCK+) gathered turbulence, atmospheric-state parameters and cloud-microphysics from 0–1200 m. Flights lasted 1.5–3 hours, capturing droplet concentrations and size distributions at high resolution (<10 m spacing). The dataset aids studies of Arctic boundary layer clouds above freezing temperatures. This paper details the data collection, structure, and user guidelines.
