Abstract

This dataset contains the Dugway Proving Ground's Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave (FM/CW) Boundary Layer RADAR measurement data. Data covers the months of September 2012, October 2012, and May 2013 during the Mountain Terrain Atmospheric Modeling and Observations Field Experimental Component (MATERHORN-X) campaign. The data format for this profiling radar is jpeg image files. These are original files and have not undergone quality control procedures. The time stamps are based off of UTC time for all the instruments for the MATERHORN-X data, unless it was stated otherwise. Please refer to the included readme and description PDF files for more information on the data and instrument.
