Abstract
The PECAN field campaign assembled a rich array of observations from lower-tropospheric profiling
systems, mobile radars and mesonets, and aircraft over the Great Plains during June–July 2015 to
better understand nocturnal mesoscale convective systems and their relationship with the stable
boundary layer, the low-level jet, and atmospheric bores.
