What level data: (raw,a0,a1,b1,c1 etc):
What location was the data collected at: CF
Period of time in question
Begin Date 06/10/96 Time 17:30 (GMT)
End Date Time (GMT)
Data should be labeled:
___ questionable ___ All data fields affected
_X_ incorrect _X_ Only some data fields affected
___ wrong calibration
___ others
Discussion of Problem:
The site operator inadvertently entered incorrect surface met values for
the subject sounding. Although he caught the error soon after launch
and reported it immediately, it was too late to correct. The following
table shows the incorrect (present in the file) and correct values.
Incorrect Correct
Pressure 1000.0 973.9
Temperature 35.0 30.5
Relative Humidity 27 30
The incorrect values of surface temperature and relative humidity will not
affect the other values in the sounding. The incorrect surface pressure
will, however, affect the altitude calculation throughout the sounding.
Other observations/measurements impacted by this problem:
None
Suggested Corrections of the Problem: (e.g. change calibration factor and
recompute, flag data with this comment, etc.)

Discussion of Problem:
The surface pressure for this sounding was entered by the operator as 996.4
hPa. The first pressure value reported by the sonde is 972.3 hPa. The surface
pressure at 05:30 was 972.3 and at 14:46 was 976.1. It appears that the
operator entered the sea-level pressure rather than the station pressure.
Note that this will affect the altitude calculation throughout the sounding.

Discussion of Problem:
The surface pressure for this sounding was entered by the operator as 1001.4

that the operator incorrectly entered sea-level pressure obtained from the
WeatherMeasure set rather than surface pressure obtained from the radiosonde.

Discussion of Problem:
The surface pressure for this sounding was entered by the operator as 976.1
hPa. Analysis of the raw data file suggests that the actual surface pressure
at time of launch was 967.1 hPa. It appears that the operator transposed
the correct surface pressure from 967.1 to 976.1 when entering the data.
Note that this will affect the altitude calculation throughout the sounding.
