different between radiosonde vs taxonomy
radiosonde
English
Noun
radiosonde (plural radiosondes)
- A miniature radio carried aloft by an unmanned balloon to automatically transmit measurements of the upper air such as the wind speed, pressure, temperature, and relative humidity to a receiving station on the ground.
- 1980, National Research Council (U.S.) Select Committee on the National Weather Service, Technological and Scientific Opportunities for Improved Weather and Hydrological Services in the Coming Decade, page 44,
- The ultimate limitation of radiosonde networks is the impracticality of global deployment. […] Although, in principle, satellite soundings should be able to match radiosonde accuracies, in practice, they have errors of at least twice those of radiosondes.
- 2000, Desmond T. Bailey, Meteorological Monitoring Guidance for Regulatory Modeling Applications, U.S. Enviromental Protection Agency, page 9-17,
- Thus, the performance characteristics of radiosondes and the relative accuracy of radiosonde winds have been the subject of a great deal of scrutiny over the last few decades.
- 2001, Fred V. Brock, Scott J. Richardson, Meteorological Measurement Systems, page 225,
- Sounding balloons carry a payload, usually a radiosonde, to heights of 30 km or more.
