National Weather Service High Resolution Radiosonde Data
Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research
This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the Verification of the Origins of Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment 2 (VORTEX2).
Description
This data set includes 1986 high vertical resolution (1-second) Radiosonde Replacement System (RRS) soundings from 16 National Weather Service (NWS) rawinsonde stations and 125 high vertical resolution (6-second) MicroArt soundings from Dodge City, Kansas for the VORTEX2 2009 area and time of interest.
In addition, this data set includes 1576 high vertical resolution (1-second) Radiosonde Replacement System (RRS) soundings from 17 National Weather Service (NWS) rawinsonde stations and 85 high vertical resolution (6-second) MicroArt soundings from Dodge City, KS for the VORTEX2 2010 area and time of interest. Note that Dodge City, KS radiosonde data stops at 1200 UTC on 11 June 2010 due to the start of the changeover to the RRS radiosonde.
