DC3: UAH MIPS 915 MHz Doppler Wind Profiler Data

Summary

This data set contains University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) Mobile Integrated Profiling System (MIPS) 915 MHz Doppler Wind Profiler data collected during the Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry Experiment (DC3) from 21 May 2012 through 11 June 2012. The data are provided in two tar files. One file contains the raw, binary spectra (*.SPC), and one file contains the raw, ascii 30 min consensus winds and 60 min RASS temperatures (*.CNS). Please refer to the document 915_raw_data_format.pdf (included with this dataset) for the format of these data, and readme_UAH_MIPS_915.txt for additional information.
