ARM 915 MHz Wind Profilers
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/85.046

Summary
This data set contains hourly vertical profiles horizontal wind speed and wind
direction retrieved from the Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation
Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains (SGP) 915 MHz Radar Wind Profilers.
The 915 MHz profilers were operated at the ARM SGP Central Facility and the
three ARM SGP Intermediate Facilities. It also contains the 915 MHz profiler
data from the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Experiement (ABLE) project in the
Walnut River watershed in Kansas. This data set covers the period from 20 May
to 31 July 2003. These data are in netCDF format.
