RISStratospheric Wind Velocity Determination from Long Duration Balloon Flights
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two long duration balloons, Infrared Montgolfieres, floating between 20 and 30 km for more then 20 days, were launched in the Southern Hemisphere in November 1988. The tracking of these balloon trajectories allowed ...
Comparison of Water Vapor Measurements with Data Retrieved from ECMWF Analyses during the POLINAT Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the POLINAT (Pollution from Aircraft Emissions in the North Atlantic Flight Corridor) experiment, water vapor content was measured with a frost-point hygrometer on board the DLR (Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für ...
An Accurate and Stable Pressure Sensor for Constant-Level Balloon Experiments from the Boundary Layer to the 10 kPa Level
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes a sensor that answers to a need of accuracy, stability and low cost for constant-level balloon experiments. The same type of sensor can be employed for any level up to 10 kPa (100 mb) and we hope for ...
Superpressure Balloon Flights in the Tropical Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two series of quasi-constant-level pressurized balloons have been flown within the tropical planetary boundary layer, preliminary to a larger experiment for exploring the low-level flow over the Indian Ocean. The first ...
