  • Unique Manus Island Precipitation Data Available

    Evaluation data are available for the value-added product (VAP) Mapped Moments to a Cartesian Grid (MMCG) for periods between October and December 2011 from the Tropical Western Pacific Manus site. The C-band Scanning ARM Precipitation Radar (C-SAPR) produces measurements of raw radar moments in antenna coordinates of range from and the azimuth and elevation of…

  • Mapping for Precipitation Radar Data Ready for Evaluation

    The first-ever 4-dimensional ARM data product, called Mapped Moments to a Cartesian Grid (MMCG), is now available for testing by the science community. Covering all major precipitation events during the Midlatitude Continental Convective Clouds Experiment, the MMCG is derived from scanning C-band ARM precipitation radar (C-SAPR) data. This value added product (VAP) was developed to…
