DESCRIPTION: Layer Composite
Reflectivity is similar to Composite Reflectivity,
except that it is the maximum reflectivity in a vertical
column in a specified horizontal layer. Layer Composite
Reflectivity was intended mostly for aviation purposes, but
it is helpful to gauge the vertical structure and intensity
of storms.
