Ground-based Doppler lidar and radiosonde measurements for Aeolus wind products validation

The dataset include two different types of files: ground-based Doppler lidar files (.nc extention) and radiosonde files (.txt extention). The measurements were taken at the city of Granada, by the Atmospheric Physics Research Group of the Andalusian Institute for Earth System Research (IISTA) of the University of Granada. This dataset was used to validate Aeolus wind products.

This dataset was funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation through the projects PID2020.117825GB.C21, PID2020.117825GB.C22, PID2020-120015RB-I00 and LiveWatch-2019-10-UGR-01_WP-6.4; by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation through the project CGL2016-8192-R, by the Regional Government of Andalusia through the projects A-RNM-430-UGR20, P18-RT-3820, and P20-00136; and by the Scientific Units of Excellence Program (grant no. UCE-PP2017-02).
