observations
(Thomson Reuters ONE) - (Helsinki, Finland, December 10, 2009) Vaisala has established apublic website that aims to ensure data continuity for the upper-airobservations gathered with the company's radiosounding equipment. Thewebsite was created to respond to the needs of the internationalclimatological research community, who need to ensure thatobservation data remains comparable and representative of the actualreal-life phenomena.Soundings are a major resource for climatological research, and theobservation data series can span decades. Maintaining data continuitywithin the time series is crucial, as researchers need to be able toadjust and correct any information that could have amisrepresentative effect on the long-term trends within the series.Vaisala's newly established website provides information on productmodifications and further developments of the Vaisala Radiosonde RS92product family and the related groud equipment, dating back to thelaunch of the products. The effect of product modifications onmeasurement results is small or non-existent, but documenting themguarantees that no change that could effect the interpretation ofclimatological time series is overlooked.Going forward, similar data continuity information will be providedfor the climate reference radiosonde that Vaisala is currentlydeveloping to serve the specific needs of climate change research.Vaisala's data continuity website will be introduced during theUnited Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen. Vaisala takespart in the Bright Green Expo at Forum Copenhagen on December 12-13,2009 (Cleantech Finland exhibition stand no. 37).Data continuity website:www.vaisala.com/weather/products/datacontinuity.htmlMore information:Sanna Nyström, Communications (Finland)Tel. +358 40 584 1126, sanna.nystrom(at)vaisala.comAbout VaisalaVaisala is a global leader in environmental and industrialmeasurement.
