The M-55 Geophysica as a Platform for the Airborne Polar Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors describe the Russian Stratospheric Aircraft M-55 Geophysica, an important new platform for earth observation, and describe some technical details of its inaugural mission. The M-55 has successfully conducted ...
High-Resolution Stratospheric Tracer Fields Reconstructed with Lagrangian Techniques: A Comparative Analysis of Predictive Skill
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical experiments and statistical analyses are conducted to determine the skill of different Lagrangian techniques for the construction of tracer distributions. High-resolution potential vorticity (PV) maps are calculated ...
A Chemiluminescent Analyzer for Stratospheric Measurements of the Ozone Concentration (FOZAN)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Within the framework of the Airborne Polar Experiment, a new ozone analyzer based on chemiluminescent technology has been developed for high-altitude measurements. The instrument was tested on board the M-55 Geophysica ...
The Experimental Cloud Lidar Pilot Study (ECLIPS) for Cloud—Radiation Research
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Experimental Cloud Lidar Pilot Study (ECLIPS) was initiated to obtain statistics on cloud-base height, extinction, optical depth, cloud brokenness, and surface fluxes. Two observational phases have taken place, in ...
