Abstract:

A statistical analysis of surface and upper air rawinsonde data is presented for Stallion Site, White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. Atmospheric parameters covered for the layer from the surface to 100,000 feet above mean sea level are Wind, temperature, pressure, density, moisture, index of refraction and freezing level. Upper air climatological information is based on the period of observation from 1961-1973 while the surface temperature data spans 1962- 1973, precipitation records 1963-1973, and wind data 1965-1973.
