01-02 WMO CODE/FLAG TABLES
ASSOCIATED WITH BUFR TABLE B
(Version
16.0.0 –
05/04/2011)
Notes: In
developing code tables associated with BUFR/CREX Table B to specify
units of
elements, the following principles should be applied:
(a) Code
tables specifying the units for an element which is defined, in the
Manual
on
Codes, by a single symbolic
letter shall be compatible
with the
relevant
existing WMO code tables;
(b) Code
tables combining two or more existing WMO code tables to specify the
units for
an element which is defined, in the Manual
on Codes, by a group of
symbolic
letters shall be compatible with the combined code figures of the
relevant
group of symbolic letters;
(c) Code
tables combining two or more existing WMO code tables to specify the
units for
an element which is defined, in the Manual
on Codes, by different
symbolic
letters shall be compatible with the code figures of the relevant
symbolic
letters, with successive tens or hundreds values added, as different
symbolic letters
appropropriate;
(d) Code
tables and flag tables should only be used for reporting qualitative
information. Quantitative information should be reported as observed
using
entries in Table B. "Data description operators" from Table C
should be applied when a "scale change" or "data width change" is
required; (e)
Reference to existing
specification(s) and code table(s)
in the
Manual
on Codes, with explanation of
possible deviations, shall
be
given in an
additional table annexed to the annexed
to the code tables associated
with BUFR/CREX Table B.

Notes:

path means the sounding has been generated from clear radiances derived
from
actual clear spot measurements. Tropospheric and stratospheric HIRS
data, as
well as MSU and SSU data, have been used.
(2) Partly
cloudy path means the sounding has been generated from clear radiances
which
have been calculated from partly cloudy spots. Tropospheric and
stratospheric
HIRS data, as well as MSU and SSU data, have been used.
(3) Cloudy
path means the sounding has been generated only from stratospheric HIRS
data,
MSU data and SSU data. Tropospheric HIRS data have not been used
because of
cloudy conditions.

Notes:
1. Clear
sounding
indicates the sounding
has
been generated from a set of clear radiances using all available
sounder
radiances.
2. Cloudy
sounding
indicates that
sufficient
clear radiances could not be identified in the sounding area. The
sounding is
calculated from the cloud top (cloud pressure greater than or equal to
70 hPa)
upwards.
