This dataset contains winter (October-March) extra-tropical cyclone tracks generated by TRACK (Hodges 1994, 1995, 1999) that pass through a Western European domain from the ERA-20C (1900-2010).

This dataset collection contains winter (October - March) extra-tropical cyclone tracks generated by TRACK (Hodges 1994, 1995, 1999) that pass through a Western European domain from three re-analysis datasets: ERA-20C (1900-2010), ERA-Interim (1979-2010) and NCEP-CFS (1979-2010). The tracks were filtered to retain those that travelled 1000km and lasted 2 days. Fields referenced to the tracks are: mean sea-level pressure (min within 5 degrees), 925hPa windspeed (max within 6 degrees), precipitation (max within 5 degrees), 700hPa vertical velocity (min within 5 degrees), 925hPa land-windspeed (max within 6 degrees), precipitation (area average over 5 degrees). This data was collected as part of Robust Spatial Projections for the Real World (Real Projections) NERC (Natural Environment Research Council) NE/N018486/1.

Cyclone tracks for the region south of 60S for 1979 - 2018, derived by applying the University of Melbourne cyclone tracking software to ECMWF ERA-Interim reanalysis MSLP fields at 6-hourly temporal and ~1.125 degree spatial resolution.

This dataset contains scan data from the National Centre for Atmospheric Science's (NCAS) mobile X-band radar collected at Praia International Airport, Santiago, Cape Verde between July and August 2015 as part of the Ice in Clouds Experiment - Dust (ICE-D). The radar has Doppler and dual-polarisation capability and measures the location and intensity of precipitation, radial winds and polarisation parameters. The X-band radar is operated as part of the NCAS Atmospheric Measurement Facility (AMF).
