MSU Mobile Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/527.019

Summary
Mississippi State University (MSU) utilized three mobile radiosonde systems to
release radiosondes at locations around northeastern Mississippi, northern
Alabama and southwestern Tennessee during VORTEX-SE_2016 Intensive Observation
Periods (IOPs). The choices for the locations and times of the releases were
made in collaboration with other VORTEX-SE PIs. Two different radiosonde
systems were used by MSU during VORTEX-SE_2016, iMet (10 second resolution)
from one vehicle and Windsond (1 second resolution) from two vehicles. This
data set includes a total of 69 radiosondes (23 iMet and 46 Windsond) from the
three MSU systems during the VORTEX-SE_2016 field season (13 March to 1 May
2016).
