SOAS Quality Controlled ISS Radiosonde Data

Project:

Summary

This data set contains sounding data collected from June 1 to July 15, 2013 as part of the Southern Oxidant and Aerosol Study (SOAS). A total of 105 quality controlled soundings are contained in the final SOAS dataset from the NCAR/EOL Integrated Sounding System, which is a suite of instruments that includes a GPS Advanced Upper-air Sounding System (GAUS). It was located in Alabama’s Talladega Forest.
