HOURLY RAWINSONDES FOR A WEEK

Abstract

Results of 161 GMD-1 rawinsonde flights made at 1-hour intervals during the first seven days of April 1960, at Bedford, Mass., are presented in detail. Wind displacements over intervals of 1, 2, 3, and 4 minutes are given separately for the west-east and south-north components. Heights and temperatures are presented for standard pressure surfaces every 50 mb to 200 mb and at closer intervals at higher levels. (Author)
