Precipitation (Hourly) Multi-Network Composite [NCAR/EOL]

Project:

BAMEX

Summary

The Hourly Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e., National Climatic Data Center hourly precipitation data, National Centers for Environmental Prediction/Environmental Modeling Center (NCEP/EMC) hourly precipitation data, and the precipitation data extracted from the BAMEX_2003 Mesonet: Hourly Surface Meteorological Composite). Data from these sources were quality controlled and merged to form this precipitation composite.
