GPM GROUND VALIDATION MICRO RAIN RADAR (MRR) NASA ACHIEVE IPHEX V1

Description

The GPM Ground Validation Micro Rain Radar (MRR) NASA ACHIEVE IPHEx dataset was gathered during the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Ground Validation Integrated Precipitation and Hydrology Experiment (IPHEx) in North Carolina from May 1, 2014 through June 15, 2014. The dataset includes data from the MRR instrument, which is part of the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) ACHIEVE ground-based mobile laboratory. The MRR is a Biral/Metek 24 GHz (K-band) vertically oriented Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FM–CW) radar that measures Doppler spectra, radar reflectivity, Doppler velocity, drop size distribution, rain rate, liquid water content, and path integrated attenuation. Data files are available in ASCII 'ave' data format.
