    Welcome to the CAVE web site.  We are still piecing the web-site together after it's crash, so many links may still not be available. None-the-less: Data collected in this effort are meant for use in validation studies of Clouds & The Earths Radiant Energy System (CERES) instruments operating on the and Earth Observing Systems(EOS) Terra  & Aqua & Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) satellites.

CAVE is an informal record containing  radiation and meteorological data for a number of specific sites having
  (1) CERES top-of-atmosphere (TOA) broadband observations in low volume, easy to use, subsets
      collocated with,
  (2) surface broadband flux measurements from ARM, SURFRAD,CMDL, and BSRN networks.
Please read the CAVE overview for a complete introduction to the project.
