RI CPEX

Metadata Updated: February 19, 2026

The RI CPEX dataset consists of data collected from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2), Global Precipitation Measurement Microwave Imager (GMI), and Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS) onboard satellites measuring atmospheric and surface conditions. These data were gathered during the Convective Processes Experiment (CPEX) field campaign. CPEX collected data to help answer questions about convective storm initiation, organization, growth, and dissipation in the North Atlantic-Gulf of America-Caribbean Oceanic region during the early summer of 2017. These data files are available from May 24, 2017, through July 16, 2017, in netCDF-3 format.
