| Subject: | Pressure jump after launch |
| DataStreams: | sgpsondewrpnB6.a1 |
| Description: | First pressure value returned by the sonde after launch was 966.8, somewhat lower than would be expected given the surface pressure reading of 971.3. This resulted in an apparent ascent rate that is greater than the QC flag trigger. Ascent rates during the first 30 s of flight are likely incorrect. Absolute altitudes also are likely incorrect. Relative pressure differences after launch should be okay. |
