S-Pol Enhanced Bragg Scattering Layer Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/485.133

Summary
This data set contains the results of the Enhanced Bragg Scattering Layer
(EBSL) analysis conducted on the National Center for Atmospheric
Research/Earth Observing Laboratory (NCAR/EOL) S-Pol radar that was located
near La Crosse, Kansas during the Plains Elevated Convection at Night (PECAN)
field campaign. The analysis provides estimates of the top and base altitudes
of layers of enhanced Bragg scatter from individual Plan Position Indicator
(PPI) scans. These data are in Matlab format.
