Radiosondes – LA Toulouse – M30, Cadarache

Measurements obtained by radio-soundings with balloons of the recovery type. The "CRA2013monthdayhour.fil" file in each RS subfolder contains the following 19 variables: TempF = GPS time (s) AltitudF = geopotential altitude (m) LatitudeF = latitude (rad) LongitudeF = longitude (rad) VEstF = east component of probe velocity (m/s) VNordF = north component of probe velocity (m/s) VVertF = vertical component of probe velocity (m/s) VHorF = horizontal wind velocity (m/s) VDirF = wind direction (deg) TaNCalF = air temperature, uncalibrated (°C) TaCalF = air temperature, calibrated (°C) TaRadF = air temperature, calibrated and corrected for radiative effect (°C) -> recommended use UNCaF = relative humidity, uncalibrated (%) UCalF = relative humidity, calibrated (%) -> recommended use PressF = pressure (Pa) GPSAltF = raw GPS altitude (m) AD_OzoneF = not used T_OzoneF = not used AD_AuxF = not used
