Abstract

The KAZR-ARSCL VAP provides cloud boundaries and best-estimate time-height fields of radar moments. The VAP merges corrected, but uncalibrated, KAZR moments from all active radar modes with cloud base and cloud mask observations from the micropulse lidar (MPL), cloud base from the ceilometer, as well information from soundings, rain gauge, and microwave radiometer instruments to produce two data streams, one with best-estimate cloud base and cloud layer boundaries, and another which also includes best-estimate time-height fields of radar moments. This DOI is for the data stream that contain cloud layer boundaries only. Please note that the reflectivity used in this level c0 product is uncalibrated.

KAZRCORGE-c0

Dataset Johnson, Karen ; Toto, Tami ; Giangrande, Scott

For the Ka ARM Zenith Radar (KAZR) data stream, kazrcorge.c1 (ge=general sensitivity), produces significant detection mask, corrects reflectivity for gaseous attenuation, and dealiases mean Doppler velocity. Note that reflectivity in this product is not calibrated.
