TOGA COARE soundings from Gove

This dataset consists of sounding data from Gove in Australia (WMO 94150). Soundings were taken four time per day (00, 06, 12, and 18 UTC) during the IOP, however the 06 and 18 UTC files contain wind information only. The data were processed through the automated, visual, and spatial quality control processes. This dataset includes pressure, temperature, dew point, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and altitude taken at a variable vertical resolution. Refer to the station README file for details. NOTE: This dataset has been updated (5/2/2002) with corrected data for the humidity measurement errors of the Vaisala RS 80 radiosonde (Wang et al 2002). Please see the README for details.
