Note
titleAttention:

The system is operated by staff from the German weather service (DWD). Scientific co-use is possible according to prior agreement with AWI Logistics and Principal Investigator of the Polarstern Meteorological Observatory (Holger Schmithüsen). Helium is calculated to supply one 600 gramm balloon per day. If additional radio sonde ascents are planned, the user has to organize the additional sondes, ballons and helium.

contenttypeSummary

The radiosonde sounding system gathers meteorological data (pressure, Digicora Sounding System receives measurements (temperature, humidity, wind, position) from a mandatory radiosonde and data from additional sensors like ozonesonde (ozone), cryogenic frostpoint hygrometer (CFH; stratospheric water vapour) and COBALD (aerosol) as well as from ground based sensors (standard humidity chamber, and others)radiosonde and processes them for further use.
