NCAR/NSF C-130 High Rate (25 sps) Navigation, State Parameter, and Microphysics Flight-Level Data [NCAR/EOL]

Project:

EPIC

Summary

This data set includes airborne measurements obtained from the NSF/NCAR Research Aviation Facility (RAF) C-130Q Hercules aircraft (Tail Number N130AR) during the "Eastern Pacific Investigation of Climate" project which took place from 1 September 2001 to 15 October 2001. This data set contains the High-Rate (HRT, 25 sps, mixed) production data set. The HRT Bitfile log lists times and dates of individual flights.
