    "description": "Here we provide a dataset which includes Vaisala CL51 ceilometer observations of low clouds made during the period 14th February 2022 and 31st December 2023 at Scott Base, Antarctica (77.8 S, 166.7 E). Complemented by ERA5, JRA55 and MERRA2 reanalyses output that has been processed using an instrument simulator. These datasets allow direct comparison between the reanalyses datasets and the ceilometer observations.\n\nGET DATA:  https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5281\/zenodo.11458725",
