Description:An intercomparison analysis of GATE rawinsonde temperature, humidity, and winds is described. Data from the formal Intercomparison Periods and Phases I and III from the United States, the Federal Republic of Germany, Canada, and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics were used. Height-dependent differences between the measurement systems are presented for the temperature and humidity data. Comparisons were made between the U.S.S.R. winds derived from radar tracking, and the U.S. winds derived from radar, VLF, and OMEGA tracking. Means and standard deviations of the wind U and V component differences are computed for different averaging depths.
