Abstract

This data set includes 60-second resolution flight level data from the WC-130 flights for the ITOP field program (15 August - 20 October 2010). Additional information is available in the readme files. This data set was provided by the Naval Research Laboratory and the data are in a columnar ASCII format. This data set also includes 1 second resolution data from the Stepped Frequency Microwave Radiometer (SFMR) that was processed using the Klotz and Uhlhorn (2014) algorithm. These data are in NetCDF format.
