Title

GATE Ship Radar, June to September 1974

Alternative title(s)

d845001

Abstract

This data set contains the polar digital tilt sequence data (normally one sequence each 15 minutes consisting of a base tilt scan followed by scans taken at successively higher tilt angles) collected with the 2 NOAA C-band radars for the 3 phases of GATE. Each scan contains equivalent reflectivity factors for 2-degree by 2km data bins out to a maximum range of 260 km. The intensity resolution is 1 dBZ. The raw digital values for the polar data bins were obtained in real time by using a Digital Video Integrator and Processor (DVIP).
