Abstract

This data set includes 1726 quality controlled NWS (National Weather Service) soundings released at 14 sites throughout the western United States during the WE-CAN (Western Wildfire Experiment for Cloud Chemistry, Aerosol Absorption and Nitrogen) field phase (20 July to 19 September 2018). Thirteen of the stations are available at 1-second vertical resolution (1608 soundings) and one station is available at mandatory and significant level resolution (118 soundings).
