Description

Datasets used for the paper 'Interpreting turbulence anisotropy in a streamline coordinate system'. Data from SnoHATS and METCRAX II field campaigns. Datasets include turbulent quantities calculated on 30- and 1-min averaging windows for unstable and stable conditions, with prior linear detrending. Planar fit was used in METCRAX II and double rotation in SnoHATS to rotate the flow into the mean wind direction. Datasets include quantities to characterize the anisotropy of the Reynolds stress tensor, such as eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and the angles between the eigenvectors and the streamline coordinate system, defined in the direction of the mean wind vector.

1c: one-component Reynolds stress tensor

2c: two-component axisymmetric Reynolds stress tensor

3c: isotropic Reynolds stress tensor
