Identification Algorithm for Cold Pool Gust Fronts in Weather Station Data From Equatorial Africa
Authors/Creators
Description
This archive contains (i) the source code of an algorithm for the identification of convective cold pool gust fronts in weather station data and (ii) near-surface and satellite data of 4218 cold pools that were identified in station data from equatorial Africa between January 1, 2019, and September 30, 2023, and validated based on satellite-derived brightness temperatues.
