R/V Sagar Kanya Radiosonde L3 Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/347.011

Summary
This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the Dynamics of the
Madden-Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO) 2011-2012 project. This preliminary data
set includes 71 high vertical resolution (2-second) radiosonde soundings from
the R/V Sagar Kanya. The soundings were typically released four times per day
at 00, 06, 12, and 18 UTC from 25 September to 10 October 2011 and less
frequent releases continuing through 19 October 2011. These soundings were
provided by JAMSTEC and had preliminarly quality control by NCAR/EOL. This L3
version of the data set has had a daytime radiation dry bias correction
applied by CSU. An L3.1 version of this data set will be available later with
an additional correction applied for deck heating effects.
