CPPA: Bondville High Resolution Radiosonde Data (NWS Site Central Illinois, IL)

Projects:

Summary

This data set contains the Climate Prediction Program for the Americas (CPPA) Bondville high resolution radiosondes for the Coordinated Energy and Water Cycle Observation Project (CEOP). The data was collected from the Central Illinois, IL National Weather Service (NWS) upper air station and consists of six second vertical resolution profiles of pressure, temperature, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity,and altitude from 01 October 2002 through 20 July 2007 and two second vertical resolution profiles from 30 July 2007 to 31 December 2009. The National Center for Atmospheric Research/Earth Observing Laboratory (NCAR/EOL) did perform quality control processing on this data set. Consult the README for more information.
