1994 VORTEX NetCDF Data

Summary

The armored T-28 aircraft was flown by the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology (SDSMT). The data from these flights were collected by SDSMT under agreement with the National Science Foundation (NSF) Lower Atmospheric Observing Facility Program. This dataset includes NetCDF data for five T-28 flights flown during the Verification of the Origins of Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment (VORTEX) in 1994. The observational frequency for this dataset is 20 Hertz.
