DYNAMO: TOGA Radar, final moments data in cfRadial format, fully corrected

Summary

This data set consists of quality-checked, cfRadial format files (version 2) of TOGA radar data taken during the DYNAMO (Dynamics of the Madden-Julian Oscillation) project. The data are available in daily tar files (about 2-3 GB/file) and are provided by Colorado State University.

Archive note

Each order can contain a maximum of 24 GB of data (~8 days). For very large orders, it may be preferable for you to access these data via a loaner external hard drive. Please email the Point of Contact to request these data.
