SuperDARN grid files used to create the Thomas and Shepherd [2018] statistical convection model

<p>Daily Northern Hemisphere SuperDARN grid files&nbsp;in DataMap format for the years 2010-2016 (inclusive) used to create the <em>Thomas and Shepherd</em> [2018] statistical convection model. Grid files were&nbsp;processed using a modified copy of v4.2 of the Radar Software Toolkit (RST) where the average slant range associated with each grid vector is stored in the &#39;pwr.median&#39; field.</p> <p>References:</p> <ul> <li>Thomas, E.
