Platform/Measurement: sgpsondewrpnc1
What level data: (raw,a0,a1,b1,c1 etc): all
What location was the data collected at: SGP/CF
Period of time in question
Begin Date 6/21/97 Time 20:27 (GMT)
End Date Time (GMT)
Data should be labeled:
___ questionable ___ All data fields affected
_X_ incorrect _X_ Only some data fields affected
___ wrong calibration
___ others
Discussion of Problem:
Site operations reports that incorrect surface values were entered into
the subject sounding. Instead of 972.3, 33.7, and 46 the surface pressure,
temperature, and humidity values should have been 971.8, 33.3, and 47.
The incorrect surface pressure will result in incorrect altitudes throughout
the profile and incorrect ascent rate values during the first 30 seconds.
The effects of the incorrect temperature and relative humidty values should
be negligable.
Other observations/measurements impacted by this problem:
Suggested Corrections of the Problem: (e.g. change calibration factor and
recompute, flag data with this comment, etc.)
