Old LROSE Tutorials

• quick start
  • lrose quickstart tutorial - Go over the basics to get up and running quickly with LROSE.

• echo tutorials
  • basic elle echo tutorial - Go through the basic steps necessary to convert a raw radar file to CfRadial, calculate Kdp and three-dimensional rain rate, and estimate the surface rainfall. The purpose of this tutorial is to confirm that the install process was successful and that some programs are working.
  • basic+ elle echo tutorial - Similar to the basic elle tutorial with the added tasks of downloading GFS analysis from which to estimate a sounding near the radar and running the RadxBeamBlock application.
  • full elle echo tutorial - This tutorial assumes the user has radar data downloaded in an acceptable radar format and walks through the most important parameters that need to be edited to run the Quantitative Precipitation Estimation (QPE) workflow.

• grid tutorial
  • elle regrid and convective/stratiform tutorial - Convert raw NEXRAD data to the cfradial format and then interpolate to a cartesian grid and applies a convective stratiform separation algorithm.

• wind tutorial
  • VORTRAC tutorial - run VORTRAC to retrieve the winds using the GBVTD/GVTD algorithm from a single Doppler radar data.

• CSU Radartools tutorial
  • CSU-Radartools tutorial - Step through the processing of a raw radar file through editing, QC and gridding using LROSE and CSU-Radartools

• Airborne radar navigation correction tutorial
  • Airborne radar navigation correction - Go through the steps of applying navigation correction on airborne radar data. Airborne radar navigation correction package can be found here.
