Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel (HS3) Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Tropics Satellite Data V1

Description

The Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel (HS3) Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Tropics Satellite Data contains browse only data files, including brightness temperature, rain rate, and Red, Green, Blue (RGB) composite imagery, for the Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel (HS3) field campaign. Goals for the HS3 field campaign included assessing the relative roles of large-scale environmental and storm-scale internal processes, addressing the controversial role of the Saharan Air Layer (SAL) in tropical storm formation and intensification, and the role of deep convection in the inner-core region of storms. These browse only data files are available for dates between April 22, 2013 and September 30, 2014 in JPG format.
