| description abstract | Various methods of conditioning the rawinsonde balloon were tried at the Amundsen-Scott IGY Station (South Pole), Antarctica, in an attempt to improve sounding heights. During the dark, cold months, conditioning of the balloon in warm diesel fuel proved significantly better than the conventional conditioning methods. However, with the return of sunlight and the rapid warming of the stratosphere, diesel fuel conditioning was found to be inferior to the boiling water or moist heat-box method of balloon conditioning. | |
