INTRODUCTION
=======================================================================

Welcome to the Phoenix MET Archive Volume. This volume contains Phoenix MET Lidar, Pressure and Temperature data records and documentation which describes the data records. Both the raw (Experimental Data Record) data and calibrated data (Reduced Data Records) are on each archive volume. 

Documentation available in the archive includes: instrument calibration reports (*CCC.pdf), and, data formats and description (DPSIS.PDF) for each instrument. 

The MET LIDAR instrument is described in Whiteway, J., Daly, M., Carswell, A., Duck, T., Dickinson, C., Komguem, L., & Cook, C. (2008). Lidar on the Phoenix mission to Mars. Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 113(E3).

The MET Pressure and Temperature sensors are described in Taylor, P. A., Catling, D. C., Daly, M., Dickinson, C. S., Gunnlaugsson, H. P., Harri, A. M., & Lange, C. F. (2008). Temperature, pressure, and wind instrumentation in the Phoenix meteorological package. Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 113(E3).
