Ever since I first learned about radiosondes as a kid, I’ve been fascinated by them. To my young mind, the idea that weather bureaus around the world would routinely loft instrument-laden ...

The U.S. National Weather Service sends up a large number of radiosondes attached to balloons twice a day. Their job is to measure conditions at high altitudes up to about 30km. Once the balloon ...

Armed with radiosondes, these balloons will collect atmospheric data and, with luck, capture data indicating “gravity waves.” These are waves moving through a stable layer of the atmosphere ...

Their temperature and humidity profiles are typically comparable or superior to co-temporal radiosondes, and are more accurate than radiosondes with 12-hour latency. Microwave radiometers for dry ...

Bhutan is set to enhance its early warning system and improve weather forecasting capabilities with the establishment of an ...

The next challenge for the agency will be building a facility to house the weather equipment and prepare the balloons and radiosondes. Nash said construction will probably take about two years ...

The primary research tools used by our group are the Wyoming Cloud Radar and King Air, but a range of resources is used, depending on the experiment, such as radiosondes, surface stations, scanning ...

These batteries are used primarily to deliver high power for relatively short periods of time after activation in such applications as radiosondes, fuzes, missiles, torpedoes, and other weapon systems ...

and 15 radiosondes. These are instruments that can give regular updates on the changing parameters of windspeeds, atmospheric pressure, humidity, and temperature at various elevations of the ...

Scientists from the Fritz Haber Institute, Sorbonne University, and Uppsala University have made a discovery that can help to improve our understanding of the behavior of ions in solutions. Their ...
