viii 1.0 Introduction The Taiwan Area Mesoscale Experiment (TAMEX) is a mesoscale meteorological research program conducted jointly by scientists from Taiwan, the Republic of China and the United States. As stated in the TAMEX overview paper by Kuo and Chen (1990), the main scientific objectives of TAMEX are to study the Mei- Yu front, mesoscale convective systems, and orographic effects. Since the end of the field program in 1987, two scientific workshops have been held for presentations of the TAMEX preliminary research results. In addition to the annual workshop, the U.S. TAMEX project office also publishes a bi-monthly newsletter which provides information concerning the current activity of the TAMEX project office, conventional and Doppler radar data management, and TAMEX research. The data collected during the experiment consisted of surface and upper-air observations from various networks over Taiwan and its adjacent oceans (200 to 290 North and 1140 to 1300 East). The majority of the observing systems were located along the coastline due to the existence of the Central Mountain Range in the middle of the island (see Fig. 1.1). The surface mesonet consisted of a surface observational network, a raingauge network and a wind tower network. The upper-air network consisted of conventional and special rawinsonde sites, pibal sites, minisondes, dropwindsondes released from the P-3 aircraft, and conventional radar sites. The minisonde is a portable system which was operated mostly at National Central University (NCU). The in situ meteorological and Doppler radar data were also collected during the P-3 flight missions. The mainland China surface and upper-air data for selected days in May and June 1987 were later added as a supplemental dataset. The mainland China data cover an area of 200 to 350 North and 110° to 1250 East. All sounding systems collected data at 6 hour intervals from 15 May to 15 June 1987 to provide continuous measurements in both the disturbed and undisturbed periods. These measurements are referred to as the Special Observing Period (SOP). High frequency soundings were made at 3 hour intervals along with continuous operation of three ground-based Doppler radars and P-3 aircraft during the Intensive Observing Periods (IOPs) when significant weather events occurred (see Table 1.1 for the description of all IOPs). The meteorological features observed during the IOPs are listed in Table 1.2 (from Kuo and Chen 1990). Several NCAR technical notes have been published to summarize the daily operations (Cunning 1988), the P-3 aircraft operations (Jorgensen and LeMone 1988), and the Doppler radar operations (Parsons and Trier 1989) during the field program. The Taiwan Data Center also published a three-volume data summary. Volume one contains a description of the TAMEX data. Volume two contains the synoptic weather maps of May and June 1987. Volume three contains the meteorological satellite images of May and June 1987. The publications mentioned above can be obtained from the U.S. TAMEX Project Office at NCAR. This document describes the various datasets taken from the conventional observing system during the field operation and data archived in the U.S. Data
1 Center at NCAR. It points out problems that have been discovered in the high resolution upper-air sounding data and the correction methods applied by the U.S. Data Center. In order to provide U.S. scientists the complete information about the observing network and data format, some information provided here also appeared in other published TAMEX documents. This technical note is designed to provide guidance for the U.S. TAMEX data users only.

The text is organized as follows. Section 2.0 provides the titles and a brief description of the data sets. Section 3.0 deals with the quality control procedures used on the TAMEX high-resolution sounding data. This will cover 1) the gross error correction technique; 2) special corrections due to the diurnal temperature oscillation; and 3) the Cross-chain LORAN Atmospheric Sounding System (CLASS) sounding wind recovery technique. Section 4.0 provides guidance in acquiring the datasets from NCAR's mass storage system (MASS STORE) and the available data from the U.S. TAMEX Data Center and section 5.0 contains the conclusions. Appendices A and B provide the data indicator tables and a station list of the observational systems used in the various datasets. Appendix C contains information on the available data from the NCAR MASS STORE.
4 2.0 Description of the Datasets
There are thirteen types of TAMEX level IIb* datasets. These were archived on three data tapes referred to as Tapes A, B and C. The datasets on these tapes have been archived on the NCAR MASS STORE (see Appendix C) as individual datasets or files. In this section we included the mainland China surface and upper- air dataset as a supplemental dataset for the TAMEX level IIb data. All the data, except the mainland China data, described here were quality checked by the Taiwan TAMEX Data Center at the Central Weather Bureau. The quality checking procedures can be found in the TAMEX Data Summary (prepared by the Taiwan Data Center, available from the U.S. TAMEX Data Center). In addition to the quality checking effort made by the Taiwan Data Center, the U.S. Data Center also performed corrections to the TAMEX high resolution upper-air soundings and the mainland China upper-air soundings. The correction procedures are described in Section 3. The following sections provide an overview of the available TAMEX datasets. Descriptions of the data frequency, the station locations and the data formats are included for reference.
2.1 Mesonet IOP Surface and Rainfall Data
During the experiment, 78 surface and 125 raingauge stations recorded hourly data. The observing frequency was increased to 30 min intervals during the lOPs. Fig. 2.1 and Fig. 2.2 show the location of the surface mesonet and raingauge stations (see Tables B-1 and B-2 for the listing of the surface mesonet and rainfall stations). Most sites recorded wind speed and direction, temperature and rainfall; pressuressure and dewpoint temperature recording varied by site. Three out of the 78 surface mesonet stations were shipboard stations. Additional information such as sea surface temperature is reported by the ship stations. The ship data were missing during some lOPs when the ships had to return to port for supplies or maintenance. Due to the problems with some automatic rainfall collecting systems during the field program, some raingauge stations did not record data before 27 May 1987.
* The Global Atmospheric Research Program's (GARP's) data have been subjected to post-event quality control and reformatting procedures. They include observation data that were not reported in real-time.

9 2.2 Mesonet IOP/SOP High Resolution Upper-Air Sounding Data
This important dataset contains the sounding observations from the 9 land-based rawinsonde stations and the 3 ship stations. The location of the 12 rawinsonde and 10 pibal stations are shown in Fig. 2.3 and Fig. 2.4, respectively (see Tables B-3 and B-4 for the station list). The average station separation is about 150 km. In this dataset, all soundings were interpolated from the mandatory and significant levels to a high resolution format. The high resolution data wereat 50 meter increments from the surface to 3000 meters and at 150 meter increments above 3000 meters. Due to the resolution in most sounding instruments, only 5 stations actually recorded with high resolution data (close to 30 meter resolution). Of these stations, two were land- based (Penchiao and Hualien) and three were aboard ships (Ocean Research I, Navy Ship and Fishing Trainer I). The other 7 stations recorded mandatory and significant level data which were then interpolated to the high resolution format. Table 2.1 lists the routine sounding launch schedule (from Kuo and Chen, 1990). Table 2.3 Schedule for Sounding Launches

2.6 VHF Radar Wind Profiler Data
The wind profiler was located at the National Central University and the data were processed by NCU. Wind data were collected between 2.3 to 10.6 km height with vertical resolution of about 300 m. Due to the equipment problems, data collected before 15 June, 1987 either had a large gap or were missing. The original data were reformated by the U.S. TAMEX Data Center for easy access. Twenty five MASS STORE files were generated (see appendix C). The NCU VHF radar was operated at 52 MHz frequency range. Three components of the winds were measured on a nearly continuous basis. The time interval between each profile (from gate 1 to 30) is either 6.3 or 3.2 minutes. Radar
19 echoes that are received at equally-spaced heights are referred to as range gates (by measuring the returned signals at equally-spaced times). The vertical resolution of the profiler corresponds to a range of heights which echoes were received at any range gate. Detail specifications of the NCU VHF radar are described in the Doppler Radar Operations Summary (Parsons and Trier 1989).

2.12 Conventional Radar Data
The conventional radar characteristics are described in the Taiwan Area Mesoacale Experiment: Doppler Radar Operations Summary (Parsons and Trier 1989). Hualien and Kaohsiung are the only two conventional radars that recorded digital data . The other three radars provided pictorial data which is available from the albums in the U.S. TAMEX Data Center. Fig. 2.6 shows the location of the 5 conventional radar sites (see Table B-8 for the stations list). There are two files of digital radar imagery in this data set. The first file is the Hualien radar station data. The second file is the Kaohsiung radar station data. Each observation may have 1 (Column Vector Intensity Value (CVIV)) , or 4 (CVIV, 3km, 7km, and 11km height), or 7 (CVIV, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11km height) levels data.

Both the Hualien and Kaohsiung Stations kept all control parameters and C band video data on magnetic tapes at the site. Each file combines 7 different elevations of observation. For the Hualien Station, the first record is the control parameters (256 bytes) and the second to the 12th records are the video data (8192 bytes/record). The Kaohsiung Station adds two extra bytes before each record. Therefore, the first record length is 258 bytes. The second record from the Kaohsiung radar is the area precipitation data with a record length of 514 bytes. The third to the 13th records are the C band video data (8194 bytes). Record 14 is the side altitude intensity table (7778 bytes), and record 15 is the top altitude intensity table (7238 bytes). Hualien Radar Station

2.14 Mainland China Surface and Upper Air Data
The mainland China surface, rawinsonde and pibal data that were available for TAMEX covers only a selected number of days. These dates are 16, 17 May, 1987 and 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 16, 17, 18, 23 June 1987. Only 00 and 12 UTC upper air data were reported while the surface data were available at 3 hour intervals. The upper-air mandatory and significant level data (rawinsonde and pibal) were available in two separate files. The rawinsonde mandatory and significant level data have been merged and formated according to the TAMEX IOP/SOP upper-air high resolution format. The surface data were also sorted and formated according to the TAMEX mesonet IOP surface data format. The merged mainland China pibal data is not available at this time. This is due to the difficulty with two different vertical coordinates given in the mandatory (pressure) and significant (height) level data. Future work to merge the pibal data is planned.
45 The mainland China sounding data contained many typographical errors for the temperature field. After these temperature errors were corrected by the U.S. TAMEX Data Center the dew point temperature was recalculated according to the new temperature. Some soundings have an inconsistent height field and were not corrected. The surface, rawinsonde and pibal station locations are shown in Figs. 2.7, 2.8, and 2.9 respectively (see Tables B-9, B-10 and B-11 for the stations list).

48 3.0 Quality Checking Procedure at the U.S. TAMEX Data Center
A quality checking procedure was established to deal with problems found in the upper-air data. The first step in the procedure is to obtain a list of the possible errors. Meteorological variables such as pressure, geopotential height, temperature, relative humidity, wind direction, and wind speed are examined by the error checking program. Basically, the program performed two kind of checks. The first one was a range check and the second one was the consistency check. Detailed descriptions are presented in Section 3.1. After a list of possible errors was obtained, the second step was to remove the errors based on the Skew T plots and the original data from the field. Minor typographical and keypunch errors were also corrected. The original high resolution data (50 meter height increments to 3000 meters and 150 meters above) were established by interpolation and merged with the initial standard and significant pressure levels data. This was the procedure for most stations except for the five stations; Penchiao (46685), Hualien (46699), Ocean Researcher (RCHY), Navy Ship (RCJH), and Fishing Trainer (RCYS). These stations actually measured and recorded data at the high vertical resolution. When the interpolated data were merged with the standard and significant levels, redundant pressure or height levels appeared, as well as "out-of-order" pressure levels. To remove these kind of interpolation errors, linear interpolation was performed on the 6 non-high resolution stations by using the corrected mandatory and significant level data. The diurnal temperature oscillation appeared on three of the sounding stations (46695, 46747 and 46810). Section 3.2 gives the detailed description of the method we used to remove the diurnal temperature oscillation. Wind errors were most often caused by keypunch error with the exception of wind data from the CLASS sounding located at Fishing Trainer. Due to the poor relative geometry of the Fishing Trainer location to the Loran stations, wind data from the CLASS sounding need to be reprocessed by increasing the smoothing interval from 30 to 120 seconds. Section 3.3 gives a detailed description of the procedure used to recover the TAMEX CLASS soundings.
3.1 Error Checking Procedures*
The error checking procedures for TAMEX upper-air sounding data were based on the FGGE data quality control procedures and criteria with slight modification to accommodate the subtropical climate in TAMEX area. Temperature, dew point temperature, wind direction, wind speed, geopotential height, and pressure are examined in this procedure.
* The procedures described here were developed by James Bresch at Colorado State University

53 3.2 Diurnal Temperature Oscillation
An additional problem of diurnal temperature oscillation was discovered at stations Tungkang (46747), Pengchia-Yu (46695) throughout the entire TAMEX field phase (Figs. 3.2 and 3.3), and Tungsha (46780) for a period of two weeks from 31 May to 13 June (Fig. 3.4). While the temperature time series plots for station Makung (closest station near Tungkang) and Penchiao (closest station near Pengchia-Yu) did not show this kind of oscillation (Figs. 3.5 and 3.6). Detailed description of the temperature error characteristics of Tungkang soundings can be found in the TAMEX newsletter volume 1, number 6 (Bresch and Johnson 1987). The following procedures describe the method used to remove the temperature oscillation from stations Tungkang and Pengchia-Yu. No attempts were made to remove the two-week diurnal temperature oscillation from Tungsha.
3.2.1 Procedures to Remove the Diurnal Temperature Oscillationfrom Tungkang and Pengchia-Yu
a. Select a reference rawinsonde station located close to the problem station (Makung and Penchiao in this case). Linearly interpolate the 50 meter increment data to 25 mb increment data from 1000 to 100 mb for the reference and problem stations. b. Calculate the mean temperature on 37 vertical levels (from 1000 to 100 mb) at individual times (either 00, 03, 06, 09, 12, 15, 18, or 21 UTC) for both the reference and problem stations during the TAMEX experiment. Reference station:
(TAt)A = -1 T- Problem station:
m l m (Tht)B = - = 12 where t is the time (00, 03, 06, 09, 12, 15, 18, or 21 UTC), k is the 25 mb increment pressure level, and tl and 12 are the total number of soundings at time t for station A and B during the two-month field operation. c. Compute the mean temperature difference between the reference and problem stations.
t 6Th = ((Tkh)B -(Th)A) * l
D1 = l,(l o) forPk > 850mb
wl = 1 forPh < 850mb
54 where Ph is the 25 mb increment pressure level, A represents the reference station and B represents the problem station. Then the temperature correction term is:
(TDF)it = 6T^+l - (T+l - 6Tk') * W2
W2 =--
where w2 is the pressure weighting, Ph is the 25 mb increment pressure level and Pi is the actual pressure level of the problem station (Ph > Pi > Pk+i). d. Remove the temperature oscillation from the problem station by applying the temperature correction on each pressure level according to time.
This method assumed the atmospheric diurnal temperature differences above the boundary layer at Tungkang and Makung were the same (or at Penchiao and Pengchia-Yu were the same). Therefore, by computing Makung's (or Penchiao's) diurnal temperature differences (as functions of height and time) above the boundary layer (presumably above 850 mb), we were able to correct the diurnal temperature oscillation at Tungkang (or Pengchia-Yu). However, the top of the boundary layer varied with different atmospheric conditions and was not always at 850 mb. Artificially reducing the temperature differences logarithmically to zero from 850 to 1000 mb preserved some temperature errors in the lower atmosphere. Therefore, noticeable errors remained especially in the geopotential height field (since the height field is an integrated parameter, minor errors in the temperature field at lower levels will accumulate upward), but not so much in the temperature field. The temperature time series plots for Tungkang and Pengchia-Yu after the correction are shown in Figs. 3.7 and 3.8. (see Figs. 3.9 and 3.10 for the average day and night temperature differences before and after removing the diurnal temperature oscillation from Tungkang and Pengchia-Yu).

63 3.3 Wind Data Problems
Wind data problems were most often typographical or keypunch errors, however, Hualien (46699) displayed a wind speed reporting problem when the wind was reported in knots instead of meters/second above 100 mb in the stratospheric easterlies. This seemed to be "operator oriented" and has not been resolved. The winds from the Fishing Trainer's Cross-chain LORAN Atmospheric Sounding System (CLASS) were initially useless due to the lack of LORAN stations over east Asia. These soundings have been reprocessed and now provide much more information although some irregularities persist. The reprocessing technique is described in the following section.
3.3.1 Procedurefor Post-ProcessingTAMEX-CLASS Soundings
CLASS is the Cross-chain LORAN (LORAN-C) Atmospheric Sounding System developed at NCAR. LORAN, which stands for LOng RAnge Navigation, has been researched and developed by the U.S. Coast Guard since the end of World War II. The LORAN-C chains are the third generation of the system and are located only in the Northern Hemisphere. A LORAN-C chain consists of one master and at least two secondary land-based stations (usually 3 to 5 stations in a single chain). All LORAN-C stations broadcast very high synchronized signals at 100 kHz. The CLASS sounding consists of a simple LORAN receiver which receives the signals from all of the LORAN transmitters within a 2000 km range; pressure, temperature and humidity sensors; a modulator; and a 400 mHz transmitter to send the information to the ground receiver. To locate the position of the sounding, it is necessary to measure the relative Time-Of-Arrivals (TOA) from at least three stations in a single chain to compute latitude, longitude, and time. The NCAR CLASS system can use stations from the separate chains to obtain better geometry to compute the wind data. The wind measurement errors using the LORAN-C system are affected by three factors: (i) the relative geometry of the sonde location with respect to the LORAN stations; (ii) the measurement error variance of TOAs; (iii) the computational aspects of smoothing the TOA data (Passi and Morel 1987). With the absence of the mainland China LORAN-C chain, the geometry to produce good winds from Fishing Trainer was barely acceptable. The stations that could be received were Iwo Jima (42) 24.80° N/ 141.33° E, Yap Island (46) 09.55° N/ 138.17° E from the Northwest Pacific Chain, Pohang (54) 36.19° N/ 129.34° E, Kwong Ju (56) 35.04° N/ 126.15° E from Korea, the Sea of Japan Chain, and Gesashi (45-57) 26.61° N/ 128.15° E, a joint station in both chains. These stations were located east of Taiwan and produced marginal geometry. With a revised algorithm for post-processing of CLASS soundings made avail- able by Claude Morel of the Surface and Soundings Systems Facility/NCAR, more wind data could be retrieved from the original data stored on the mini disk because a 120 second smoothing interval was introduced (the original real time processing
64 algorithm used a 20 second smoothing interval for the thermodynamic data and a 30 second smoothing interval for the wind data). When station "dropouts" for periods of a minute or more produced gaps in the TOA, an interpolation process was used. This procedure was introduced whenever one station "dropped out" with three or more stations receiving at that same time. If all stations "dropped out" during the same time interval no benefit could be derived from interpolation. The procedure for the reprocessing of each sounding was as follows:
1. With the HP 300 series computer running with the Morel Program, the original LORAN data file was loaded from the mini disk. 2. Winds were computed for the entire sounding using all stations deemed usable according to the LORAN navigator(ANI) within CLASS. 3. After examining the TOA plots from each station, a different station selection might be ordered to produce better results and in the case where "dropout" gaps occurred, an interpolation might benefit the computation of the winds. The computation was done only with the manual selected stations and for the time intervals selected. 4. A plot of U and V or Total Wind determined the improved results. 5. This new computed wind file was reentered on the disk. 6. After reformatting the thermodynamic and the wind data, these data were entered into a "Quick Analysis" program on the VAX that removed inconsistencies due to negative rates of rise (balloon descent in the downdraft region). This resulted in a consistent sounding. 7. These 10 second data were restructured to 50 meters increments from surface to 3000 meters and 150 meters above, which were consistent with the rest of the TAMEX upper-air dataset.
Fig. 3.11 shows an example of Fishing Trainer soundings before and after the wind recovering processes.

66 4.0 Guidance for Acquiring TAMEX Datasets
Datasets in the form of conventional radar picture albums, satellite pictures, microfiche of weather maps, and hardcopy printouts can be found in the U.S. TAMEX DATA LIBRARY. The U.S. TAMEX data users are invited to peruse the premises for data made available from the Taiwan TAMEX Data Center.
4.1 Sample C Shell Script To Acquire TAMEX data from the NCAR MASS STORE
The digital TAMEX data are archived at the NCAR's mass storage system (MASS STORE). If the users have an account exists on the NCAR CRAY Y-MP, a job can be submitted to acquire the TAMEX data. If access to the NCAR MASS STORE is not possible, a request can be made to the TAMEX Conventional Data Manager to have data put on tape. There is a small charge for this service. The inventory of data on MASS STORE and the TAMEX Data Library are included in Section 4.2 and Appendix C. A sample of c shell script to acquire TAMEX uppair air dataset and to extract sounding data from a MASS STORE file during a certain period of time is as follows:

70 5.0 CONCLUSIONS The purpose of the U.S. TAMEX Data Center is to provide the U.S. scientists with good quality TAMEX data. Release of quality checked mesonet upper-air sounding data enables scientists to use these data with confidence. There may be some subtle data errors that have gone undetected, therefore, users have to exercise their own judgment. Users are encouraged to contact Sue Chen, Convectional Data Manager, at telephone number (303) 497-8932 (or e-mail to [email protected] on INTERNET), if a problem is encountered. Quality checking will continue until all datasets receive a "clean bill of health". Future activities at the U.S. TAMEX Data Center will include: * Merging the China mandatory and significant level pibal data. * Reorganizing TAMEX level-IIB data into individual MASS STORE files. * Reorganizing upper-air and surface data into IOP segments. * Reformatting the P-3 dropwindsondes, minisondes, and P-3 meteorological data to the high resolution upper-air data format. Progress on these tasks will be reported in the TAMEX newsletter.
