Soundings, Ice Camp NCAR/GLAS raobs. (ASCII) [Moritz, R.]

Project:

SHEBA

Summary

A GPS sounding system is deployed at the ice camp by NCAR/SSSF. Soundings are taken every 12 hours throughout the 13 month deployment period. One-second time resolution ASCII data are provided for each launch time at 0000 and 1200 UTC daily. JPEG skew-t plots are also available. (13.201) This data has had some quality control.

Archive note

These data files are ASCII files in the CLASS format. They have been tarred together by month.
