Current Events

Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry (DC3) Field Campaign (May 1 - June 30, 2012)

CSU-CHILL will be taking part in the Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry (DC3) Field Campaign from May 1 to June 30. The events calendar will be updated to indicate specific data collection days.

Dual frequency Operations: January 2012

X-band test data

The Dual-frequency feed horn was installed on the CSU-CHILL antenna, and initial data collections were conducted to test the installation. Data from the X-band system is compared against the S-band system here.

Dual frequency feed horn arrives at CHILL: October 5, 2011

Dual frequency feed horn

The new feed horn capable of simultaneous polarimetric operations at S and X-bands was delivered in early October. Test operations with this horn should begin in December, 2011.

DOW radar data evaluations: August 26, 2011

DOW 7 at CSU-CHILL

Coordinated dual-polarization data collection was done by the DOW 7 and CSU-CHILL radars during the conduct of a 20hr project.

REU 2011 students: July 14, 2011
