Subject: | Pressure jump at launch |
DataStreams: | sgpsondewrpnB1.a1 |
Description: | The difference between the first pressure reported by the sonde after launch (945.1) is substantially lower than that reported at the surface (955.7). This difference is greater than expected and suggests that either the sonde was jarred at launch or the system misidentified the actual start time. The effect is that the absolute altitudes will be incorrect for this sounding as will be the ascent rates during the first 30 seconds. |
