Radiosondes – the telemetry packages carried aloft by sounding balloons for atmospheric weather data measurements – are regularly used by weather bureaus around the world to collect data ...

The Polar Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer measured the downwelling infrared radiance from the atmosphere (sky brightness) from 3 to 20 μm. Over 100 radiosondes were also launched during ...

Radiosondes – the telemetry packages carried aloft by sounding balloons for atmospheric weather data measurements – are regularly used by weather bureaus around the world to collect data ...

Teams from U.S. universities proved during the 2023 solar eclipse that such events can trigger atmospheric gravity waves, as ...

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 ...

Most graduate students have the opportunity to participate in field work. The primary research tools used by our group are the Wyoming Cloud Radar and King Air, but a range of resources is used, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
