Mobile GPS Radiosonde Data from Purdue (Intermet Format)

Project:

MPEX

Summary

This data set contains high resolution data from the Purdue University mobile radiosonde system that was deployed for the MPEX project. A total of 95 soundings were released in locations in the pre-convective and convectively disturbed environments near deep convective storms in the central United States over the period from 17 May to 12 June 2013. The data . These data were provided by Jeff Trapp of Purdue University. These data will soon be available in the NCAR/EOL ESC format to match the rest of the MPEX sounding data sets.
