Merged Data Files containing all C-130 1 Second Observations

Summary

This dataset consists of 1-second merged data from the 19 research flights with the C-130 over the Southeast U.S. between June 1 and July 15, 2013, as part of the Southeast Atmosphere Study (SAS). Merged data files have been created, combining all observations on the C-130 to a common time base for each flight. Version R5 (created Jan 21, 2015) of the merges includes all data available as of Jan 12. For the 1-Second merge all values from individual files are written out for each second. Missing, LLOD, ULOD values for all variables were replaced with standard values (-9999999, -8888888, -7777777).
