ACE-1: Cape Grim ISS 915MHz Wind Profiler Winds and RASS Data

Summary

This dataset contains 915 MHz wind profiler data collected by the NCAR/EOL Integrated Sounding System (ISS) located at Cape Grim during the Southern Hemisphere Marine Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE-1) of 1995. This dataset includes consensus winds data and Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS) virtual temperatures in NetCDF format. These data have not been quality controlled.
