NOAA P-3 1Hz Flight Level Data

Alternative title(s)

488.013

Abstract

This data set contains the 1 second resolution flight level data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) P-3 aircraft flights into the tropical systems of interest to the Tropical Cyclone Intensity (TCI) field project. The storms included are Erika from the 2015 Atlantic region, Patricia from the 2015 Eastern Pacific region, and Matthew from the 2016 Atlantic region. These data are in a columnar ASCII format and were collected from the NOAA Hurricane Research Division (HRD) archives.
