Radiometrics Microwave Radiometer Profiler Northwest Granite (UND)

Project:

MATERHORN-X

Summary

This dataset contains the Radiometrics Microwave Radiometer Profiler data from NOAA located at the Northwest of Granite Site. Data was collected during the Mountain Terrain Atmospheric Modeling and Observations (MATERHORN-X) program. This dataset was not subject to any quality control or processing. It has been provided in its original form.

Refer to following when ordering data and looking at data files.

GPS = Global Positioning Satellite Data, Met = meteorological observations, Liq = cloud liquid water content, T_K = temperature in Kelvins, Vap = tropospheric water vapor, ColInt = column integrated liquid and vapor, RH = Relative Humidity

15N = vertical profile oriented at 15 degrees from vertical to the north, 15S = vertical profile oriented at 15 degrees from vertical to the South, 15Avg = average of the 15N and 15S profiles, Zen = vertical profile
