CHIVO Radar Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/619.017

Summary
CSU-CHIVO data collected during the Experiment of Sea Breeze Convection,
Aerosols, Precipitation and Environment (ESCAPE) field campaign, from 1 August
to 25 September 2023. The Colorado State University C-band Hydrological
Instrument for Volumetric Observation (CSU-CHIVO) performed cell tracking
scans from La Porte Airport, TX, using frequent updates of range-height
indicator (RHI) scans. These data are available as daily tar files and are
provided by Stony Brook University. The data files include processed radar
variables including: noise-masked reflectivity and differential reflectivity
corrected for rain attenuation and systematic biases, noise-masked dealiased
radial velocity, specific differential phase, locations of target cells
(latitude, longitude, radar range), and radar-echo classification.
