OWLeS: University of Utah North Redfield Radiosonde Data

Summary

The University of Utah operated a radiosonde system during lake-effect systems on Lake Ontario. University of Utah operations were at the North Redfield site at the eastern end of Lake Ontario. This data set includes the quality controlled University of Utah soundings released for the Ontario Winter Lake-effect Systems (OWLeS) field phase (7 December 2013 to 28 January 2014). A total of 40 quality controlled, high resolution (1-second) soundings are contained in the final OWLeS data set.
