Abstract

This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the THORPEX Pacific Asian Regional Campaign (T-PARC 2008). This data set includes 2590 high vertical resolution (6-second) MicroArt soundings from the eight National Weather Service (NWS) rawinsonde stations in the T-PARC region (Yap, WCI; Ponape, ECI; Koror, Palau WCI; Chuuk, ECI; Majuro, Marshall Island; Guam, Marianna Island; Hilo, HI; Lihue, HI). The data cover the period from 31 May 2008 to 31 October 2008. The soundings were typically released twice a day (0000 and 1200 UTC). The data are in EOL Sounding Composite format (columnar ascii).
