  1. Nine sites used for a radar comparison (RC) and four subsequent trial periods (A, B, C, and D) along eastern Lake Michigan during spring 2014. Shoreline sites were 1.5 km inland and Inland sites were 20 km inland. Percent open water indicates amount of open water within a 3.7 km radius (approximate maximum radar detection range), according to the 2011 National Land Cover Database [59]
