ICE-T: National Weather Service High Resolution Radiosonde Data

Summary

This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the Ice in Clouds Experiment - Tropical (ICE-T) 2011 project. This data set includes 60 high vertical resolution (1-second) Radiosonde Replacement System (RRS) soundings from National Weather Service (NWS) rawinsonde stations. This ICE-T data set includes data from 1 July 2011 through 31 July 2011 for the NWS station in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The soundings were typically released twice a day (0000 and 1200 UTC). The data are in EOL Sounding Composite format (columnar ascii).
