NCAR/EOL Quality-Controlled NIMA 915MHz Wind Profiler Winds and Moments Data

Project:

IDEAL

Summary

This dataset contains 915 MHz wind profiler data collected by the NCAR/EOL Integrated Sounding System (ISS) located at the Dugway Proving Ground in Utah during the Instabilities, Dynamics, and Energetics accompanying Atmospheric Layering (IDEAL) field campaign. This dataset includes Doppler moments and consensus winds data in NetCDF format. These data have been quality-controlled through the NCAR Improved Moments Algorithm (NIMA) and are considered the final data product.
