Description: | It appears as if the operators had a problem with the original sounding and launched a second radiosonde. Apparently they used the calibration tape that came with the first radiosonde (serial number 943156405) in place of the one that was correct for the second radiosonde (sn 943156406) and all the data are bad after the first sample (surface values). |

Subject: | SGP/SONDE/C1 - Incorrect absolute pressure |
DataStreams: | sgpsondewndcalcC1.c1, sgpsondewrpnC1.00, sgpsondewrpnC1.a0, sgpsondewrpnC1.a1 |
Description: | The surface pressure (983.5 hPa) reported by this radiosonde (sn 94315713) is substantially higher than that reported by the THWAPS (~977) or by the sondes used in the previous and following soundings (976.6, 977.3). This may be a calibration problem or a mechanic problem on launch. The pressure values reported in the remainder of the sounding are consistent with the reported surface pressure, so the altitudes should be correct. The absolute pressure values may be high by about 5 hPa. |
