Summary
NARVAL-South:
Measurements of microwave radiometer brightness temperatures, radar reflectivity and linear depolarisation ratio, and dropsonde atmospheric profiles from aircraft campaign over tropical Atlantic out of Barbados.
Aim of the campaign was the observation of shallow convection in the trade wind region east of Barbados.
