VERSION 2 INFORMATION
=============================================================================

   Version 2 of this dataset separates the Electron Density profile from the
main data files and makes a correction to the egress profile that was
discovered. Differences in egress profile are very small and within
the uncertainties. Furthermore egress is statistically a non-detection
(zero densities), but for sake of accuracy they are reposted to be
consistent with the publication.

INTRODUCTION
=============================================================================

    This dataset contains processed radio science data and results of the
Juno Ganymede radio occultation. This dataset is provided in order to 
supplement the submitted article to the "Geophysical Research Letters"
journal:

    Buccino, D.R., et al (2022), Ganymede’s Ionosphere observed by a 
    Dual-Frequency Radio Occultation with Juno, Geophysical Research 
    Letters, submitted February 2022.


    Please note the raw data used in this analysis are not provided in this
supplementary dataset. The raw Juno Gravity Science Data may be found at

ARCHIVE INFORMATION
=============================================================================

    This archive contains two files within the root directory.
    
    ROOT
     `- JunoG34OccData_Egress_v2.csv

            This data file contains the EGRESS data relevant to the radio
            occultation. The data is a timeseries of impact parameter, sky
            sky frequency at X-band and Ka-band, the dual-frequency 
            combination, the calibrated dual-frequency, Total Electron 
            Content.

     `- JunoG34_GRL_Egress_Profile_v2.csv

            This data file contains the EGRESS Electron density, and
            1-sigma electron density uncertainty.

     `- JunoG34OccData_Ingress_v2.csv

            This data file contains the INGRESS data relevant to the radio
            occultation. The data is a timeseries of impact parameter, sky
            sky frequency at X-band and Ka-band, the dual-frequency 
            combination, the calibrated dual-frequency, Total Electron 
            Content.

     `- JunoG34_GRL_Ingress_Profile_v2.csv

            This data file contains the INGRESS Electron density, and
            1-sigma electron density uncertainty.

=============================================================================
FILE FORMAT
=============================================================================

    This dataset contains only a comma-separated text files which are
given with the "*.csv" extension.


    CSV FILES
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Comma-Separated Value (CSV) files are plain-text files. Values in
    each data file are separated using a comma ",". Each column is defined 
    by a header row which provides a description of each column.
