This is data from a Micro Rain Radar (MRR) that was deployed at Alta, UT from 2022–2024. The MRR is a vertically pointing Doppler radar that operates at a frequency of 24 GHz (K-band). The radar collects time series of equivalent reflectivity, Doppler velocity, and Doppler velocity spectrum width, all in 1-dimension (the vertical).
