IHOP_2002: ARM High Resolution Radiosonde Data

Summary

This data set contains rawinsonde profiles from five Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement - Clouds and Radiation (ARM-CART) sounding stations collected during the International H2O Project 2002 (IHOP 2002). ARM soundings were released from Lamont (Central Facility), Morris (B5), Purcell (B6), and Vici (B4) OK, and Hillsboro (B1), KS. Regular releases were augmented by additional releases during intensive observing periods (IOPs). The data files consist of vertical profiles of temperature, dew point, relative humidity, u and v wind components, total wind speed, wind direction, and altitude. The vertical resolution is two seconds. This data set has been quality controlled by The Joint Office of Science Support (JOSS). Consult the README for more information.
