cops_rsdu_imkmt: meteorological station data measured at mobile meteorological towers run by FZK/IMK-TRO during COPS 2007
The positions of the meteorological towers (IMKMT1 to IMKMT4) are identical with the positions of the launching sites of the drop-up-sondes (IMKRS1 to IMKRS5). There have been no more than 4 teams operating on each IOP. For detailed information about the sites (including a map) and operating days see supplement pdf-file (cops_rsdu_imk_info_1).
The parameters are:
air_pressure: measured at about 1.8 m GND by a barometric pressure sensor that has a gill pressure port, 60s mean.
air_temperature_at_1.8m: measured at about 1.8 m GND by a HYGROMER meteorology probe MP 400a, 60s mean.
relative_humidity_at_1.8m: measured at about 1.8 m GND by a HYGROMER meteorology probe MP 400a, 60s mean.
precipitation_amount: measured by a tipping bucket rain gauge (catchment area: 200 cm**2), 60s accumulated.
wind_speed_at_4.5m, wind_from_direction_at_4.5m, virtual_temperature_at_4.5m: measured at about 4.5 m by a Young 3-D Sonic Anemometer, 60s mean.

"Amount" means mass per unit area. "Precipitation" in the earths atmosphere means precipitation of water in all phases. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: mm
- Attribute description
- wind_speed-at4.5m
- Descriptor
-
Speed is the magnitude of velocity. Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.) The wind speed is the magnitude of the wind velocity. [CF-Standard Name-vertical_coordinate]; unit: m s-1
