Wind data in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere estimated from the observation data of the MF radar at Pontianak (text format)

ResourceID
spase://IUGONET/NumericalData/RISH/misc/PON/MFradar/mfr_pon_txt

Description
The wind data in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (60-100 km) estimated from the observation data of the MF radar at Pontianak, Indonesia (0.003S, 109.36E). The data are stored in the text file named (year)(month)(day) _fca.txt. The text file includes year, month, day, time (universal time), height, zonal, meridional and vertical winds of the original data in the binary format (Full Correlation Analysis: FCA). The wind data corresponding to "bad" status code (other than 0) in the original data are replaced by missing value. The wind data for a period from September 2, 1999 to present are available now. In the future, the wind data for other periods will be released.
