Horizontal Earth-relative dual Doppler wind fields at the 2.75 MSL height

The CSU-Pawnee radar was operated between mid-October and mid-December 2007 in support of the ICE-L field project. During the morning hours of 11 December 2007, snow was falling over much of northeastern Colorado. CSU-Pawnee performed several volume scans in synchronization with the Cheyenne WSR-88D radar (KCYS), in order to

1. Test the dual Doppler wind field synthesis procedures
2. Compare reflectivity values at common grid point locations. (more...)
