Title

M2HATS: ISS Radar 915 MHz Wind Profiler Data

Alternative title(s)

d361535

Abstract

915 MHz Profiler winds and moments collected by the EOL/Integrated Sounding System team during the M2HATS (Multi-point Monin-Obukhov similarity horizontal array turbulence study) field campaign in Tonopah, Nevada. Daily NetCDF-3 files of 915 MHz radar wind profiles are available as 30 minute averages in both standard and NIMA (NCAR Improved Moments Algorithm) processing. Daily NetCDF-3 files of 30 minute averaged moments are provided by NIMA processing. Winds and moments are also available in Zarr store format preserving all three data products (NIMA moments, NIMA winds, standard winds) as separate groups within a single daily store.
