Description

The CAMEX-4 Shared Mobile Atmospheric Research and Teching Radars dataset was collected by the Shared Mobile Atmospheric Research and Teaching Radar (SMART-R), which is a portable 5 cm Doppler radar. All equipment (e.g., antenna, power generator, processors, and readout computers) are truck mounted to provide maximum transportability. Originally located in the Florida Keys during CAMEX-4, the radar was moved to the Venice Florida area for landfall of TS Gabrielle on September 14, 2001.
