TORUS_2019: Multi-Network 5mb Vertical Resolution Sounding Composite

Summary

This data set includes the quality controlled interpolated 5mb vertical resolution radiosonde data from all sources (National Weather Service and NOAA/National Severe Storms Laboratory), for the Targeted Observation by Radars and UAS of Supercells 2019 (TORUS_2019) field season. A total of 1457 quality-controlled soundings are contained in the final data set. Additional soundings from Purdue University are expected to be included later.
