Satellite/radiosonde comparison [PDF]

open access: yes
Collocated measurements of radiosonde and TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS) data are compared to determine whether significant latitudinal, seasonal, or instrumental biases exist.

Observations of mesoscale vertical velocities around frontal zones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Vertical velocity and reflectivity data obtained with a VHF Doppler radar over a 15-day period in October and November of 1981 are analyzed. Standard radiosonde data and surface observations were used to locate two occluded fronts, two warm fronts, and a

The impact of conventional surface data upon VAS regression retrievals in the lower troposphere [PDF]

open access: yes
Surface temperature and dewpoint reports are added to the infrared radiances from the VISSR Atmospheric Sounder (VAS) in order to improve the retrieval of temperature and moisture profiles in the lower troposphere. The conventional (airways) surface data

Long‐Term High‐Resolution Radiosonde Measurements Reveal More Intensified and Frequent Turbulence at Cruising Altitude in China

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Turbulence is of great importance for aviation safety, but its long‐term trend in China remains unclear due to the scarcity of in‐situ measurements. Here the national‐scale assessment of turbulence dissipation rate (ε) at flight cruising altitude (200 ...

Dropsondes and Radiosondes for Atmospheric Measurements

open access: yes, 2012
Knowing the actual state of the atmosphere is the basis for any kind of weather forecast. The overall atmospheric condition is analyzed periodically using numerous ground station observations and radiosondes rising on a balloon and gathering the vertical profiles of pressure, temperature, humidity, wind speed and wind direction.
