ABLE Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS) https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/77.061 Summary This data set contains hourly profiles of virtual temperature from the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Experiments (ABLE) Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS) operated by the Argonne National Laboratory in the Walnut River Watershed in Butler County Kansas (east of Wichita). During the IHOP period three RASS were in operation. Data cover the period from 13 May to 25 June 2002 The data are in ASCII format.
