In addition, tracking of the balloon allows for computation of winds and wind shear at upper levels of the atmosphere.
ECCC requires the services of a contractor to prepare the instruments and conduct two (2) upper air soundings per day, three hundred and sixty-five (365) days per year,(366 days in a leap year) to monitor the data and messages produced, and to ensure the prompt transmittal of the data, onsite at the upper air station situated in Kuujjuaq, QC.
