CAMEX-4 MOBILE X-BAND POLARIMETRIC WEATHER RADAR V1
The CAMEX-4 Mobile X-Band Polarimetric Weather Radar dataset was collected by the Mobile X-band Polarimetric Weather Radar on Wheels (X-POW), which is a Doppler scanning radar operating at 9.3 GHz with horizontal and vertical polarization. The X-POW was used for detection and detailing of surface rainfall rate and precipitation classification fields, as well as for 3D precipitation microphysical retrievals including water/frozen hydrometeor contents and drop size distribution profiles. The X-POW was located in the Florida Keys during the CAMEX-4 field experiment.
