Abstract

NCAR's CP-2, CP-3, and CP-4 research Doppler radars operated on a coordinated basis during CaPE. Final processed data includes: for all three, reflectivity, velocity, spectral width, normalized coherent power, signal noise ratio and received power (not 2); for CP-2 only, differential reflectivity and linear depolarization ratio.
