This dataset was produced from the raw sodar .dat files from the Ozona, TX site during the WFIP1 campaign. Quality control and formatting have been applied to transform the numerous raw files into a single file to provide user friendliness and improved wind resource characterization at this location.

These data come from the lightning sensor on the barge. The sensor reports every lightning strike within a 300 mile (480km) radius and distinguishes CG-IC strikes and strike polarity. This dataset has been quality controlled.
This dataset contains high-frequency vertical velocity recorded by fixed-point vertical scans done by the University of Virginia Halo Streamline scanning lidar at the MLBS station. The quality control is performed according to the algorithm of Goring & Nikora (2002).

This dataset contains streamwise velocity retrieved from the Range Height Indicator (RHI) scans done by the UC Davis scanning Lidar. The quality control of the radial wind speed is performed following the algorithm of Beck & Kuhn (2017). Instantaneous realizations characterized by wind misalignment greater than 60 degrees (based on the closest VAD scan in time) are discarded.
This dataset contains wind profiles retrieved from 6-beam Velocity Azimuth Display (VAD) scans done by a Streamline XR Doppler Lidar operated by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and deployed at the Tree Tops site (1.5 km South-West of MLBS site). The wind components (expressed as zonal, meridional and vertical) are retrieved through the algorithm of Paschke et al. (2015). The quality control of the radial wind speed is performed following the algorithm of Foken et al. (2004).

WINDPROF provides 10-minute wind and turbulence profiles, integrating Doppler lidars, wind profiling radars, and sonic anemometers across Northeast U.S. coastal/offshore sites during the WFIP3 campaign. Key data include wind speed, direction, vertical velocity, and turbulence parameters, with standardized quality control (e.g., instrument-specific thresholds and inter-instrument validation). Profiles are interpolated to a height grid (20 m spacing below 100 m; 30 m above) and include comprehensive uncertainty estimates. The Block Island dataset covers February 2024–September 2025, offering reproducible methods for atmospheric research, model validation, and wind energy studies.

WINDPROF provides 10-minute wind and turbulence profiles that integrate scanning Doppler lidars, a profiling lidar, a 915 MHz radar wind profiler, and a sonic anemometer across Northeast U.S. coastal and offshore sites during the WFIP3 campaign. Variables include wind speed, wind direction, vertical velocity, turbulence intensity, and turbulent kinetic energy, each with per-instrument quality control and inter-instrument agreement validation. Profiles are mapped to a standardized height grid – a dedicated near-surface level at the sonic measurement height (5 m AGL), 20 m spacing to 100 m, and 30 m spacing above – and carry component and derived uncertainty estimates. Heights are reported above ground level; the site's ground elevation is stored separately. The Nantucket dataset covers 1 February 2024 – 8 September 2025.

WINDPROF provides 10-minute wind and turbulence profiles that integrate a scanning Doppler lidar, a profiling Doppler lidar, and two sonic anemometers across Northeast U.S. coastal and offshore sites during the WFIP3 campaign. Variables include wind speed, wind direction, vertical velocity, turbulence intensity, and turbulent kinetic energy, each with per-instrument quality control and inter-instrument agreement validation.
