Subject: | Pressure jump at launch |
DataStreams: | sgpsondewrpnB4.a0, sgpsondewrpnB4.a1 |
Description: | The difference between the first pressure value reported by the sonde after launch (942.8) and the surface pressure (949.2) is greater than expected. This may indicate that the sonde was jarred at launch or that the system failed to identify the start time properly. The absolute altitudes for this sounding will be questionable as will be the ascent rate during the first 30 s. |
