KTWX Enhanced Bragg Scattering Layer Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/485.129 Summary This data set contains the results of the Enhanced Bragg Scattering Layer (EBSL) analysis conducted on the National Weather Service WSR-88D located at Topeka, Kansas (KTWX) during the Plains Elevated Convection at Night (PECAN) field campaign. The analysis provides estimates of the top and base altitudes of layers of enhanced Bragg scatter from individual Plan Position Indicator (PPI) scans. These data are in Matlab format.
