2000 STEPS NetCDF Data

Projects:

Summary

The armored T-28 aircraft was flown by the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology (SDSMT). The data from these flights were collected by SDSMT under agreement with the National Science Foundation (NSF) Lower Atmospheric Observing Facility Program. This dataset includes NetCDF data for thirteen T-28 flights flown during the Severe Thunderstorm Electrification and Precipitation Study (STEPS) in 2000. The observational frequency is 20 Hertz.
