WDSS-II Guide to Interpolating Reflectivity to -10\u02daC Level in RAP\/RUC Data<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The process of obtaining data from multiple radars, quality controlling the data, merging the various radars to a common three dimensional latitude and longitude grid, and then interpolating that radar reflectivity to the -10\u02daC level found in RAP\/RUC data is explained here. This process was conducted and then this document created by Bryan Burlingame<\/b><\/i> (burling6@uwm.edu) <\/i>and Dr. Clark Evans\u00a0<\/b><\/i> <\/i>at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee <\/b>for the purpose of identifying Convective Initiation (CI) in hours immediately following Mesoscale Predictability Experiment (MPEX) research flights.<\/p>\n

Lak’s note:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The entire document is being posted in three pieces for easier searchability.\u00a0 The steps to create the Reflectivity-10C product are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Get RUC\/RAP data into WDSS-II<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Create QCed radar data<\/a> from Level-II<\/li>\n
  3. Mosaic radar data<\/a> taking into account temperature level<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Thanks to Bryan for sending me these instructions.<\/p>\n
