Multiparameter Radar and Aircraft Based Studies of the Microphysical, Kinematic and Electrical Structure of Convective Clouds
Abstract
After returning from CaPE we were busy installing the SUN workstations, disks, Exabyte tape readers, etc., so as to be compatible for NCAR radar analysis software. We were also busy installing software to read the PMS data tapes from the Wyoming and NCAR King Airs. While the Wyoming aircraft data is on the NCAR mass store, the NCAR data is still in the process of transfer to mass store. We are still to install software to read the T-28 aircraft tapes. We spent substantial time in validating and calibrating the CP-2 multiparameter radar data. Time series data from 24 August 1991 was evaluated in detail by myself and Ms. Li Liu a Ph.D. graduate student partially supported by this project. We chose time series data for evaluation since we have better handle on such data. We are pleased with the data quality from CP-2. We have chosen the cases from 26, 29 July and 5, 8, 9 August for in-depth analysis.
