NAMMA PRAIA CAPE VERDE RADIOSONDE V1

The NAMMA Praia Cape Verde Radiosonde data used Sippican MarkIIa DGPS (LOS) radiosondes, which were launched in support of NASA African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analyses (NAMMA) mission. This mission was based in the Cape Verde Islands, 350 miles off the coast of Senegal in west Africa. Commencing in August 2006, NASA scientists employed surface observation networks and aircraft to characterize the evolution and structure of African Easterly Waves (AEWs) and Mesoscale Convective Systems over continental western Africa, and their associated impacts on regional water and energy budgets. The radiosondes released were Sippican MK-IIa units developed by Lockheed Martin. The atmospheric soundings were used to measure pressure, temperature, humidity, wind direction and speed and spatial coordinates. Data is grouped by ascending and descending flights and includes temperature, Skew-T, trajectory, wind and time series plots.

NAMMA 普拉亚佛得角辐射计数据采用了西普坎 MarkIIa DGPS (LOS) 辐射计，这些辐射计的发射是为了支持美国国家航空航天局非洲季风多学科分析 (NAMMA) 任务。该任务以佛得角群岛为基地，位于西非塞内加尔海岸350英里之外。自2006年8月起，NASA 科学家利用地表观测网络和飞机，对西非大陆东部波动 (AEWs) 和中尺度对流系统 (MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEMS) 的演化和结构进行了表征，并分析了它们对区域水资源和能源预算的影响。所释放的辐射计为洛克希德·马丁公司开发的 Sippican MK-IIa 型号。大气探测数据被用于测量气压、温度、湿度、风向和风速以及空间坐标。数据按上升和下降飞行分组，包括温度、Skew-T 图、轨迹、风和时间序列图。
