A 20-year database of MCSs in eastern China
收藏资源简介:
This dataset contains the mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) over eastern China (20-42N, 95-125E) during the eight monsoon stages from 2001 to 2020. The zipped data are in netCDF format, each contains the brightness temperature (lon, lat, time) of an individual MCS event (numXXX). Note that The time attribute shows "minutes since 2001-01-01 00:00" The lon, lat attributes are in degrees at the 4-km resolution For inquiries or potential collaborations, feel free to contact Dr. Tat Fan Cheng (franklin.cheng@ust.hk) or Prof. Mengqian Lu (cemlu@ust.hk).
