- Description
- The NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) coordinates the US GRUAN sites, which include the ARM Southern Great Plains (SGP) and Howard University Beltsville Research Station and Boulder, Colorado. These sites have been selected for CFH measurements as compliant GRUAN sites and are expected to operate a monthly CFH sondes to better evaluate the upper troposphere / lower stratosphere humidity. These sondes will aid in the production of the highest quality data for atmospheric humidity compared to other radiosonde humidity measurements available on the market. Several international scientific studies comparing radiosonde measurements have repeatedly shown that most used radiosonde data show a dry humidity bias at low temperatures. The CFH measurements have been tested for highest quality and reliability at these cold conditions. The U.S. Department of Commerce, NOAA/OAR/ARL/ATDD, has a requirement for the following instrument: Cryogenic Frostpoint Hygrometer Instruments with Inlet tubes. The CFH humidity measurements include: 1. Best quality Humidity measurements 2. Fully digital transmission 3. Water resistant 4. Continuous outdoor use Cryogenic Frostpoint Hygrometer Instruments with Inlet tubes - Quantity of 14 KIT CFH Inlet Tube Replacement - Quantity of 12 iMet-1 Radiosonde - Quantity of 20 Balloon - Quantity of 12 Parachute - Quantity of 12 THIS IS A COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION FOR COMMERCIAL ITEMS PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FORMAT IN FAR SUBPART 12.6, AS SUPPLEMENTED WITH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THIS NOTICE, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION PROCEDURES AUTHORIZED IN FAR PART 13.
