Doppler wind analyses
CAUTION : CLICK LINK BELOW Important information on Doppler radar data
In 2006, there was an usually high number of situations where the inertial
navigation data on the NOAA-42 radar tapes was very inaccurate. Although we
have attempted to modify software to catch some of these errors, some will
still affect the analyses. Users should take care to make sure all regions of
the analyses seem reasonable when using the data. This will also affect the
quality of some of the doppler radial velocity files, and care must be take
when assimilating the data in models, or using the radials in an objective
analysis.
