GPM Ground Validation NASA S-Band Dual Polarimetric (NPOL) Doppler Radar Wallops Flight Facility (WFF)

The GPM Ground Validation NASA S-Band Dual-Polarimetric (NPOL) Doppler Radar Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) dataset consists of rain rate, reflectivity, Doppler velocity, and other radar measurements obtained from the NPOL doppler radar positioned at the Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) in support of the Global Precipitation Mission (GPM). NPOL was developed by scientists at WFF and is a fully transportable and self-contained S-band (10 cm), scanning dual-polarimetric Doppler research radar that was placed near Newark, Maryland between GPM GV missions. Data files are available from December 6, 2013 thru April 28, 2017 in Universal Format (UF), with browse files in PNG format containing images of corrected radar reflectivity, differential reflectivity, specific differential phase, co-polar correlation, and Doppler velocity images. Data are tarred into daily collections of files and zipped for storage and quick download.

该GPM地面验证项目NASA S-波段双极化（NPOL）多普勒雷达沃尔lops飞行设施（WFF）数据集由沃尔lops飞行设施（WFF）的科学家研发，包含从位于沃尔lops飞行设施（WFF）的NPOL多普勒雷达获取的降雨率、反射率、多普勒速度以及其他雷达测量数据，旨在支持全球降水测量任务（GPM）。NPOL雷达是一种全可移动且自给自足的S波段（10厘米）扫描双极化多普勒研究雷达，于GPM地面验证任务之间在马里兰州纽瓦克附近部署。数据文件自2013年12月6日至2017年4月28日可用，以通用格式（UF）存储，并提供包含校正雷达反射率、差分反射率、特定差分相、共极相关性和多普勒速度图像的PNG格式浏览文件。数据以每日文件集的形式打包并压缩存储，以便于存储和快速下载。
