Description
The water vapour and Relative Humidity (RH) data set provided by the IAGOS research infrastructure (www.iagos.org) since 1994 covers the troposphere and extratropical tropopause regions in the Northern Hemisphere and the upper troposphere of the subtropics to tropics. Besides data provision by open access, an automated tool for data processing and quality control permits near-real-time transmission of IAGOS Capacitive Hygrometer data. We demonstrate the use of the NRT water vapour profiles by CAMS for model validation and present results from a 15-years study on ice supersaturated air masses in the northern latitudes. We aim to use the opportunity of this workshop to identify synergies between CDRs and the IAGOS water vapour products.
