Vertical Wind Data from NCAR C-130 and NOAA P-3 Comparison Flight
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/373.019

Summary
This data set contains the vertical wind data from the NSF/NCAR C-130 and the
NOAA P-3 comparison flight on 29 June 2013 during the Nitrogen, Oxidants,
Mercury and Aerosol Distributions, Sources and Sinks (NOMADSS) project, part
of the Southeast Atmosphere Study (SAS). Included is the quality controlled
netCDF file that has the measured and meteorological derived parameters in it.
Pressure Altitude (altPA.d) was selected as the altimeter source for deriving
vertical wind. Also included is an ASCII text file that contains the
instrumentation selections used for creating the quality controlled netCDF
file.
