Statement

Methodology:

The data are FIR SuperDARN line-of-sight velocity measurements of winds in the mesosphere lower thermosphere (MLT). The data are from the geographic meridional beam 6, range gate 4 (315 km range).

The meteor wind data are measured a few hundred km south of the radar site, and the position is only known approximately. Hence the stated location is an approximate measurement location.

Data collection:

The data were measured by the Falkland Islands SuperDARN radar. The raw data were analysed using the SuperDARN FitACF v2.5.

Data quality:

The meteor wind data are generally of high quality with low errors. See Chisham and Freeman (2013) for full details regarding data processing.
