In this clip from Episode 1 of the CERES Podcast, the CERES team leaders (Dr. Willie Soon, Dr. Ronan Connolly & Dr. Michael Connolly) describe some of the published research of the CERES team.
In this episode, Michael, will focus on the use of “molar density” to analyze weather balloons and the surprising previously undiscovered insights this technique is revealing about the Earth’s atmosphere.

This is quite a technical clip. If you’re not already familiar with the concepts, it might be hard to take in all the information in one viewing. However, if you are interested in trying to understand how the Earth’s atmosphere behaves, we recommend studying this material carefully.

⭐ Good sources for weather balloon data if you want to do your own analysis:
❶ University of Wyoming’s “Atmospheric Soundings” website. Great for exploratory research. Easy to download a few balloons and look at in Excel. http://weather.uwyo.edu/upperair/sounding.html
❷ NOAA’s Integrated Global Radiosonde Archive (IGRA). Better for more systematic research. All balloons back to the early 20th century. Suitable for analysing with computer scripts. 20 Gigabytes (20 Gb) https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/data-access/weather-balloon/integrated-global-radiosonde-archive
