Council NCAR ISS High Resolution Soundings - Tundra Site (C2) [Lynch, A.]

Project:

ATLAS

Summary

This dataset contains rawinsonde derived atmospheric profiles taken at the Tundra Site (C2) on the Council, Seward Peninsula for the Arctic Transitions in the Land-Atmosphere System (ATLAS) project during the 2000 summer field campaign. The data were collected by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Atmospheric Technology Division (ATD) using NCAR's integrated sounding system (ISS). The sonde files contain vertical profiles of pressure, temperature, relative humidity, dew point, wind speed and direction, U and V wind components, altitude, and position (latitude and longitude), measured every second during the sonde's ascent. Data is available on the following days: June 29-30, July 1,2, and 6-12. See the README for additional information.
