NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER Uplooking Rayleigh Lidar Data

Project:

DEEPWAVE

Summary

This dataset contains PRELIMINARY NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER Uplooking Rayleigh Lidar data collected during the Deep Propagating Gravity Wave Experiment over New Zealand (DEEPWAVE) from 13 June 2014 to 20 July 2014. These data are in netCDF format. These data contain time vs altitude arrays of temperature (and temperature error) from 30-60km at 5 minute time cadence and 3km actual vertical resolution (reported every 1 km). Included are the Data Quality Report and an example IDL code for reading the netCDF files.
