This record describes the BASTA radar and Radiosonde products by Protat et al. (2020) from observations made in the Northern Territory northwest region. A shipborne 95 GHz Doppler cloud radar mounted on a stabilized platform was used to retrieve vertical profiles of three-dimensional (3D) winds by sequentially pointing the stabilized platform in different directions. The resulting dataset consists of the processed BASTA 3D winds (the subject of the paper), and the radiosonde dataset, which is used for validation. For more details please refer to the cited article (download link provided below): Protat, A. and I. McRobert (2020): Three-dimensional wind profiles using a stabilized shipborne cloud radar in wind profiler mode. Atmos. Meas. Tech., 13, 1–12. https://doi.org/10.5194/amt-13-1-2020.

This record describes the upper meteorological data collected with combined dual sensing by Windsond and Anasphere tethersonde on the RV Investigator Voyages from 2016 onwards. Parameters measured: pressure, temperature, relative humidity directly, then derived values for height, dew point, vapour pressure, mixing ratio and potential temperature. This data will also be available at the Australian Ocean Data Network (portal.aodn.org.au) and the World Data Centre for Greenhouse Gases (https://ds.data.jma.go.jp/gmd/wdcgg/). Further information can be found in the data and documentation links below.
