S-PolKa Radar, fully corrected, final moments data in cfRadial format https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/347.017 Summary This data set consists of merged cfRadial format, hourly files of S-PolKa radar data taken continuously during the DYNAMO (Dynamics of the Madden-Julian Oscillation) project. Be aware that one day averages almost 7 Gigabytes of data. Each order can contain a maximum of 16 GB of data (~2.5 days). For very large orders, it may be preferable for you to access these data via a loaner external hard drive. Please email the Point of Contact to request these data.
