BOREAS AFM-05 Level-2 Upper Air Network Standard Pressure Level Data

Published by ORNL_DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: September 14, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-09-10

The BOREAS AFM-05 team collected and processed data from the numerous radiosonde flights during the project. The goals of the AFM-05 team were to provide large scale definition of the atmosphere by supplementing the existing AES aerological network, both temporally and spatially. This data set includes basic upper-air parameters interpolated at 0.5 kiloPascal increments of atmospheric pressure from data collected from the network of upper-air stations during the 1993, 1994, and 1996 field campaigns over the entire study region.
