USAF C-130 Dropsonde TEMPDROP Data

Alternative title(s)

209.001

Abstract

TEMPDROP messages from the dropsondes released by the two USAF C-130 aircraft that flew during the ITOP field program. The C-130 aircraft were based out of Guam and flew around tropical systems in the western Pacific Ocean during August-October 2010. The data files are in the GTS TEMPDROP format and contain the mandatory and significant level observations from the USAF C-130 dropsondes. NCAR/EOL have conducted no quality control on these data files.
