Abstract: Analytic solutions of a balloon's response to simultaneous variations of the vertical wind speed and the density are obtained using Fourier expansion methods. It is assumed that density and wind are in phase quadrature. ...

Abstract: Ozone measurements taken from commercial airliners (GASP data) are used to estimate the vertical and horizontal fluxes of ozone near the tropopause. The annual average flux of O3 into the troposphere at 30?50°N is 7.8 ? ...

Abstract: This paper contains a theoretical interpretation of the wavenumber spectra of wind and temperature obtained from an analysis of data from over 6900 flights during the Global Atmospheric Sampling Program. The spectra cover ...

Abstract: A statistical analysis of vertical air motion has been performed for data taken in the 3-20 km altitude range by the Poker Flat MST radar during the period September 1979-January 1982. The variability of vertical velocities ...

Abstract: Solutions of the nonlinear, coupled equations of horizontal and vertical balloon motions are obtained using standard expansion methods. Comparison of the results of these solutions with those from numerical integration and ...

Abstract: A comparison is presented between vertical motion observed directly by a VHF wind profiler and the rainfall rate measured at two surface stations during an intense Colorado upslope spring storm. Averaged (8?9 hrs) precipitation ...

Abstract: Atmospheric wavenumber spectra of wind and temperature have been obtained from over 6000 commercial aircraft flights made during the Global Atmospheric Sampling Program. Temperature and velocity spectra are approximately ...

Abstract: The 12-year mean temperature and the amplitude and phase of the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) and first three harmonies of the annual wave are presented on height-latitude sections, 20 to 65 km, 80°N to 30°S. New features ...
