TC-RADAR v3k data files

This repository contains netCDF data files from the Tropical Cyclone Radar Archive of Doppler Analyses with Re-centering (TC-RADAR) version v3k. For more information on the creation of the database, refer to Fischer et al. (2022; https://doi.org/10.1175/MWR-D-21-0223.1). This repository also contains a readme for additional information on the variables stored in the "swath" and "merged" data files. The bias-corrected reflectivity data file ("tc_radar_v3k_corrected_ref.nc") was created following the methods described in Wadler et al. (2023; https://doi.org/10.1175/MWR-D-23-0048.1) and Fischer et al. (2023; Monthly Weather Review, accepted pending minor revision). The storm-centered infrared brightness temperatures ("tc_radar_swath_mergIR_v3k.nc") were derived from NASA's MergIR data set (https://disc.gsfc.nasa.gov/datasets/GPM_MERGIR_1/summary).
