20 June 2007 Bow Echo Radar Mosaics

I created 3-D mosaics of radar data from 4 NEXRAD radars in Oklahoma, for analysis of a bow echo MCS that occurred on 20 June 2007. The mosaics cover a period of significant sprite production by the storm. These mosaics will be analyzed in order to characterize the spatial and temporal evolution of the storm structure, which will then be compared to sprite production. I have linked below to a movie of the lowest altitude horizontal cross-sections of reflectivity in these mosaics.
