TRANS2AM: NWS Mandatory and Significant Level Radiosonde Data

Summary

Mandatory and significant level radiosonde data from the National Weather Service (NWS) KDNR (Denver, CO) and KLBF (North Platte, NE) sites for the TRANS2AM phase 1 (July and August 2021) and phase 2 (August and September 2022) campaigns.

Archive note

No data are available for the KDNR site for the phase 2 period as the site did not release any radiosondes due to an NWS reduction in service due to a helium shortage.
