Reference quality upper-air measurements: GRUAN data processing for the Vaisala RS92 radiosonde
The GCOS (Global Climate Observing System) Reference Upper-Air Network (GRUAN) data processing for the Vaisala RS92 radiosonde was developed to meet the criteria for reference measurements. These criteria stipulate the collection of metadata, the use of well-documented correction algorithms, and estimates of the measurement uncertainty. An important and novel aspect of the GRUAN processing is t...
متن کاملUncertainty in Signals of Large-Scale Climate Variations in Radiosonde and Satellite Upper-Air Temperature Datasets
There is no single reference dataset of long-term global upper-air temperature observations, although several groups have developed datasets from radiosonde and satellite observations for climate-monitoring purposes. The existence of multiple data products allows for exploration of the uncertainty in signals of climate variations and change. This paper examines eight upper-air temperature datas...
متن کاملA Radar Sonde System for Upper Air Measurements
The measurement of upper arr conditions is an important branch of meteorology because information is required for research, for weather forecasting and for aircraft operation. Although the first soundings were made in the 18th century, using kites and manned balloons, the systematic measurement of air conditions at great heights has become possible only since the development of radio and radar....
متن کاملMeasurement of Upper Air Pressure, Temperature and Humidity
12.1.1 Definitions The following definitions from WMO (1992; 2003a) are relevant to upper air measurements using a radiosonde: Radiosonde: Instrument intended to be carried by a balloon through the atmosphere, equipped with devices to measure one or several meteorological variables (pressure, temperature, humidity, etc.), and provided with a radio transmitter for sending this information to the...
متن کاملIn Situ Validation of a Correction for Time-Lag and Bias Errors in Vaisala RS80-H Radiosonde Humidity Measurements
Radiosonde relative humidity (RH) measurements are fundamentally important to Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program goals because they are used in a wide variety of both operational and research applications, including initialization of numerical models and evaluation of model results, validation of remote-sensor water vapor retrievals, construction of water vapor climatologies and st...
