CAMEX-3 DC-8 Airborne Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (AMMR) V1

Description

The CAMEX-3 DC-8 Airborne Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (AMMR) dataset is a browse-only dataset that consists of plotted digital count measurements collected by the Airborne Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (AMMR) during the third field campaign in the Convection And Moisture EXperiment (CAMEX) series, CAMEX-3. This field campaign took place from August to September 1998 based out of Patrick Air Force Base in Florida, with the purpose of studying the various aspects of tropical cyclones in the region. The AMMR was mounted onboard the NASA DC-8 aircraft. Daily browse files in GIF format are available for August 20, September 2, and September 17, 1998.
