| Subject: | SGP/SONDE - Pressure jump at launch |
| DataStreams: | sgpsondewrpnC1.a0, sgpsondewrpnC1.00, sgpsondewrpnC1.a1 |
| Description: | The difference between the sonde-reported pressure at the surface (969.1 hPa) and the first pressure value reported after launch (963.5) is larger than expected. This may indicate that either the pressure sensor was jarred at launch, that the system failed to correctly identify the launch start time, or some other problem. The ascent rates during the first 30 seconds of the sounding will be incorrect as will the absolute altitudes during the sounding. |
