NCAR/NSF C-130 Navigation, State Parameter, and Microphysics HRT Data - 25 Hz [EOL]

Project:

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 "Rain In Cumulus over the Ocean" project which took place from 7 December 2004 to 24 January 2005. 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.

  • 1.1 (2024-05-01):
    Processing update:    
    •  FSSP rejection updated to include overflow particles.  Previously only included rejected average transit.  This has produced about 1-1.5% relative error in the concentration variables CS100 and CONCF.
    •  FSSP raw counts data (AS100) we cleared out the zeroth bin of the histogram.  It previously had the total counts from the 30 bins.  We zeroed this to avoid any confusion
