Data Access
The 10-minute average observation data in the lower troposphere (0.2-10.0 km) taken by the transportable wind profiler (called LQ7) at Biak, in North Srawesi, Indonesia (1.55N, 124.93E, 90m MSL). The data are stored in the CSV (Comma Separated Values) file named (year)(month)(day).(variable).csv. The variable abbreviations are uwnd, vwnd, wwnd, pwr1, pwr2, pwr3, pwr4, pwr5, wdt1, wdt2, wdt3, wdt4, and wdt5, which mean zonal, meridional and vertical wind velocities, echo power and spectral width for beam 1-5, respectively. The azimuth and zenith angles of beam 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are (0, 0), (0, 14), (90, 14), (180, 14), and (270, 14), respectively, in unit of degree. The numbers of the first line of each file represent altitudes, and the second and below are observational date and local time (year/month/day hour:minute) which corresponds to the center time of averaging period (first column) and data at each altitude (the other columns). The value of 999 means missing data.
