Altitude, temperature, liquid and vapor profiles measured during a
mobile radiometer experiment conducted on 28 February 1991. On the
initial descent from the top of the Plateau the liquid baseline
increased although no liquid-bearing clouds appeared to be present.
This effect is likely the due to the change in altitude which is not
accounted for by atmospheric coefficients computed from sounding
variables above a single height.
