@rcjackson Do you know the reference for the default coefficients that sysumeteo is referring to?

Thank @mo-sun-jin for the heads up, I'll take a look at the paper!

Seems the defaults are a reference to: Ryzhkov et al. Potential Utilization of Specific Attenuation for Rainfall Estimation, Mitigation of Partial Beam Blockage, and Radar Networking, JAOT, 2014, 31, 599-619....

@scollis Users can set the coefficients, those values are defaults that are used if not specified.

Sounds good to me, I don't think it will be difficult to implement at all. I will take a look.

@swnesbitt I do like that idea, and now with xarray being used for the grids, its already a dependency. I'll see what I can code up.

@nawendt Do you have the full level 3 vad wind field? We are trying to use that for testing purposes, and trying to read the sn file itself with no...

Thank you @nawendt !

So, with the original VAD code, i'm still having issues pinpointing the difference. However, when using Jonathan's VAD code, based on Browning et al, the winds I retrieve in KT...

@nawendt In the meantime, I'm adding another vad suite that has more reasonable results. I am still working on a fix for the original vad code as I've narrowed down...
