New Precipitation Radar Data Products Released for 2 ARM Observatories
Plots from the North Slope of Alaska data set show, clockwise from top left, hydrometeor classification (gate ID), reflectivity, cross-correlation coefficient, and velocity texture (mean Doppler velocity) generated from version 2 of the CMAC value-added product for November 23, 2019. The top left plot shows IDs of ground clutter, snow, and multitrip. Gate ID—the classification…

New VAP Released for ARM Precipitation Radars
The top image shows an application chain for CMAC2. As better algorithms become available, they can be used in the modular CMAC2 architecture. The bottom image provides an example of a CMAC2 gate ID, which is used to determine the conditional application of radar data processing. Raw data from the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user…

Toolkit for ARM Radar Data Previewed at Workshop
This data plot shows the height and north/south displacement of rain relative to the ARM Southern Great Plains site’s Central Facility in Oklahoma. This retrieval used information from all three X-band Scanning ARM Precipitation Radars at the SGP site and was performed using tools in the Python-ARM radar toolkit. Click on image to enlarge. In…
