Radiosonde Intercomparison and Validation (RIVAL) Field Campaign Report
Radiosondes provide the primary source of high-vertical-resolution temperature, humidity, and pressure data from the surface through to the lower stratosphere, and are a key component of the sustained measurement program at U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facil...

Radiosondes provide the primary source of high-vertical-resolution temperature, humidity, and pressure data from the surface through to the lower stratosphere, and are a key component of the sustained measurement program at U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility observatories. At the end of 2017 the radiosonde manufacturer Vaisala ceased sales and production of the RS92 radiosondes, which were in use at the ARM field sites since 2005, and transitioned to the RS41 model. The Radiosonde Intercomparison and Validation (RIVAL) field campaign was proposed in order to undertake a sustained intercomparison and validation campaign at the Eastern North Atlantic (ENA), North Slope of Alaska (NSA) at Barrow, and Southern Great Plains (SGP) observatories in order to fully quantify the RS92-RS41 sonde differences and their dependence on all relevant influencing variables, and to understand the effects of the sonde model transition. |
