Subject:
TWP/SONDE/C1 - Bad RH at beginning of sounding
DataStreams:twpsondewnpnC1.b1
Description:
It appears that the RH sensor heating circuit failed during this portion of the sounding 
(approximately between 0km and 11km).  The RH oscillates rapidly between low (~5 %RH) and 
not so low (~70 %RH) and the oscillation seems to stop when the temperature is below ~40 
degC.  According to Vaisala these are symptoms of failure in the ASIC (application 
specific integrated circuit) that controls the heating.
Measurements:twpsondewnpnC1.b1:
  • Humidity, relative(rh)
  • Dewpoint Temperature(dp)

DataStreams:twpsondewnpnC1.b1
Description:
It appears that the RH sensor heating circuit failed during this portion of the sounding 
(approximately between 0km and 12km).  The RH oscillates rapidly between low (~2 %RH) and 
not so low (~80 %RH) and the oscillation seems to stop when the temperature is below ~40 
degC.  According to Vaisala these are symptoms of failure in the ASIC (application 
specific integrated circuit) that controls the heating.
