MICROSCOPE: Vertical wind profile data from the NCAS Atmospheric Measurement Facility's (AMF) 1290mhz Degreane Mobile Wind Profiler from Davidstow

This dataset contains vertical profiles of horizontal and vertical wind components as well as signal-to-noise (SNR) and spectral width measurements were collected at the Davidstow Airfield and Cornwall at War Museum, Cornwall, between June and August 2013 as part of the MICROphysicS of COnvective PrEcipitation (MICROSCOPE) project. These data were collected by the National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS) Atmospheric Measurement Facility's (AMF) 1290 MHz Mobile Wind Profiler, owned and operated by the University of Manchester and previously known as the aber-radar-1290mhz. The data are available at 15 minute intervals as netCDF files to all MICROSCOPE project participants.
