Abstract

This quote is for contracted research conducted at Texas A&M University as part of the Meso18-19 field campaign of the VORTEX-SE experiment managed by NSSL. Specifically, we will provide atmospheric soundings from the Texas A&M University Campus in College Station, TX location (CLIN 0001) under the solicitation. In accordance with the contract solicitation and project objectives, soundings will be launched six-hour intervals during ten special observing periods, each lasting 48 hours between 1 November 2018 and 30 April 2019. We will provide sounding data immediately after each launch and in an archived format on the VORTEX-SE data archive by 1 September 2019.
