Data for the Manuscripts of "Variability of Jakarta Rain-Rate Characteristics Associated with the Madden-Julian Oscillation and Topography" and "Subdaily Rain-Rate Properties in Western Java Analyzed Using C-Band Doppler Radar"

This archive consists of the post-processed data of C-Band Doppler Radar (CDR) over Jakarta and surrounding regions for the studies of "Variability of Jakarta Rain-Rate Characteristics Associated with the Madden-Julian Oscillation and Topography" and "Subdaily Rain-Rate Properties in Western Java Analyzed Using C-Band Doppler Radar".

The dataset is a gridded rainfall data derived from the local relationship of Z (reflectivity) from the CDR and rainfall (R) from stations. The derived rainfall data are in daily estimates from 2009 to 2012 with the format in NetCDF files.

The CDR data were obtained from the projects “Hydrometeorological Array for Intraseasonal Variation-Monsoon Automonitoring (HARIMAU)” (JFY 2005-2009), and the Science Technology Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS) “Maritime Continent Center of Excellence (MCCOE) (JFY 2009-2013) of the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST)/Japan International Cooperation Agency(JICA) under a collaboration of the Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT)-Indonesia and Japan Agency for Marine-earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC)-Japan.
