Abstract

This dataset was developed for S-band polarimetric CINRAD calibration. The calibration coefficients were zipped into 3 files. (1) LightningRod.tar The azimuthal biases of ZDR and ZH for each radar. (2) sysbias_ZDR.tar The monthly system biases of ZDR for each radar (post lightning rod correction). (3) sysbias_ZH.tar The monthly system biases of ZH for each radar (post lightning rod correction). In addition, the example code (ExampleCode.py) is available. The Python-based code for correcting the lightning rod biases and system biases of ZDR & ZH.
