2 FMI FMI Sodankylä site is currently participating in the EU Lapland Atmosphere-Biosphere Facility (LAPBIAT) Project. Sodankylä site is operated by the Finnish Meteorological Institute Arctic Research Centre (FMI-ARC). Location of the site is 67.4 °N, 26.6 °E, 179 m above mean sea level; WMO station’s number is Networks: GUAN, GAW, NDACC, GRUAN. Rigel Kivi, FMI-ARC

4 Instrument comparisons (water vapor, aerosol)
FMI Motivation: Instrument comparisons (water vapor, aerosol) water vapor and Polar Stratospheric Clouds (PSCs) in the polar vortex, sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) Timing: Balloon flights in January-February and March 2010, remote sensing for January-June 2010 and from September 2010 Rigel Kivi, FMI-ARC 4/21/2017 4

5 FMI Instruments: 1. Balloon borne sondes ( payloads altogether; =172 individual instruments) Vaisala RR01 sonde InterMet sonde Vaisala RS92 GRAW FLASH-B/RS92 CFH/ozonesonde/InterMet/RS80 ETHZ COBALD aerosol sonde BKS aerosol sonde /ozonesonde/RS80 2.Remote sensing MIAWARA-C radiometer (University of Bern); FTIR, GPS, Lidar; Satellite instruments: MLS, IASI, others Rigel Kivi, FMI-ARC

6 RR01, Vaisala Reference Radiosonde prototype
Vaisala has launched a program to develop an operational reference grade radiosonde for climate studies. Program focuses first on UTLS humidity measurements. This is targeting the needs of GRUAN network. During LAPBIAT campaign in January-March 2010 three different wind shield designs and radiation shield was tested. Comparisons with CFH cryogenic frost point hygrometer. See Lehtola et al., TECO-2010 RS92 radiosonde+DRYCAP® sensor module DRYCAP® capacitive thin film sensor Frost point temperature range °C Operated at constant temperature Response time is not temperature dependent, thus temperature correction is not needed Sensor drift is reduced by autocalibration

B RR01_16 with radiation shield and RR01_12 without radiation shield Comparison with the CFH

8 Radiosondes vs. CFH, Troposphere
Tropospheric humidity measurements on 20 January 2010 at 15:25 UT over Sodankylä, Finland, using the CFH cryogenic frost point hygrometer, two Vaisala RS92 sensors (marked as sensor “a” and “b”) and the Intermet radiosonde.
