Precipitations in the Beaufort Sea and Amundsen Gulf, Canadian Arctic, estimated by laser precipitation gauge

Raw and post-processed precipitations were collected using a Thies Clima laser precipitation gauge. The instrument was mounted on the railing of the deck atop the bridge of the CCGS Amundsen. It should be noted that there was no good location to install the instrument, and wind eddies may have influenced the data.
