Title

CAPRICORN R/V Investigator 95-GHz Doppler Cloud Radar (BASTA) Level 2 Data

Alternative title(s)

552.038

Abstract

This data set contains vertical profiles of radar reflectivity and doppler velocity from the BASTA (Bistatic Radar System for Atmospheric Studies) 95 GHz Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) cloud radar that was on-board the R/V Investigator for the CAPRICORN SOCRATES cruise over the Southern Ocean. These data are in NetCDF format and also included are quick look imagery.
