| 内容記述 | The quality of the more widely used, mapped version of the LIMS temperature data set (LAMAT) is assessed for the polar lower stratosphere by comparison with lower stratospheric radiosonde (RAOB) temperatures at a set of 22 stations. Average LIMS minus uncorrected RAOB values are within +/-0.3 K at 30, 50, and 70 hPa, and -1.2 +/-2.2 K at 100 hPa. The generally excellent LIMS/RAOB temperature comparisons at 10 to 70 hPa support the contention that there are no significant temperature bias errors in the LIMS constituent distributions for polar regions. LIMS minus RAOB differences at 100 hPa are slightly negative for the present station set, in agreement with that found by Grose et al. (1988). The month-by-month LIMS minus RAOB analysis at 100 hPa showed that LIMS is -1.9 +/-1.8 K too cold in November and December. |
