Popis:	Possible changes to the North American Atmospheric Observing System that are under discussion include the scheduling of radiosonde launches according to synoptic conditions. The authors estimate biases in long-term monthly mean tropospheric temperature and humidity resulting from reducing the number of radiosonde launches at a site depending on synoptic conditions. The sign and magnitudes of the biases vary considerably with geographic location and sometimes with season. Such biases would contaminate the upper-air climatology and complicate the calculation of climate trends. Approaches for minimizing these biases are explored.
