cops_pold: contains data from POLDIRAD during COPS Campaign

Experiment
observational dataradar
Summary
Measurements with polarimetric Doppler radar POLDIRAD from Waltenheim sur Zorn (France). Measurements are normally with a range of 120 km. Dataset files contain horizontal polarized reflectivity, Doppler velocity, linear depolarization ratio, differential reflectivity, copolar correlation coefficient and differential phase. Usage of polarimetric radar parameters requires contact with data originator. Quicklooks and further information are available through www.pa.op.dlr.de/poldirad/cops
