Experiment
ground basedmeteorological station dataobservational datasounding
Summary
Radiosondes have been launched at following sites (operating institution):

Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (IMK,Germany).
Burnhaupt le Bas (IMK,Germany).
Supersite Stuttgart (University Vienna, Austria).
Supersite Voges Mountains (Meteo France, France).
Supersite Hornisgrinde (University Leeds, UK).
Supersite Rhine Valley (University Leeds, UK).

Tethersondes have been launched at:
Freiburg (University Freiburg, Germany).

Additionally five mobile dropup-sonde teams (IMK,Germany) were deployed at different sites in the COPS region, accompanied by four mobile meteorological masts. The positions, operating days and a map are to be found in dataset "cops_rsdu_imk_info_1".
