(June 27, 2021 - August 16, 2021)
The dataset includes both raw data as well as post-processed products:
| Processing level | Description | Usage examples |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | mwx sounding files as delivered by Vaisalas sounding software | Checking specific setup of sounding station, Archival of data |
| 1 | Level 0 data converted to netCDF4 | Analysis of single soundings for the most accurate measurements possible |
| 2 | Level 1 data interpolated to a vertical grid | Analysis of entire campaign or comparison with other observations or simulations |
A full description of the dataset and the processing scripts involved can be found in the following repository: https://github.com/observingClouds/soundings_circbrazil
Soundings were conducted by H. Franke, I. Quaglia, K. Stolla and J. Windmiller. Technical support has generously been given on-board by R. Engelmann, J. Lehmke, T. Ruhtz and A. Skupin. Post-processing of the data has been done by H. Schulz. Planning of the cruise and the atmospheric measurement strategy are the work of J. Windmiller.
