NOAA Planetary Boundary Layer Heights (PBLH) derived from the NOAA/PSL 915-MHz
Wind Profiler Radars
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/592.092

Summary
Planetary Boundary Layer Heights (PBLH) estimations derived from Wind Profiler
Radars moments, for Lakeland (arv) and Prentice (prw) (year 2019, Julian days:
~177 to ~303) are included in this dataset. In the data files, some days have
more estimations than others. For some hours it was impossible to accurately
identify the PBLH, either because it was not well defined, or the quality of
the data was too poor, or there was precipitation. PBLH estimation is
performed only for daytime hours (i.e.: between sunrise and sunset). A PBL
automated algorithm was run on the wind profiler data. The results were then
double checked by-eye to make sure the provided PBLH values are good. Please
see the readme documentation and contact the author for further questions.
