START-08 Multiple Enclosure Device for Unfractionated Sampling of Air (MEDUSA) Flask Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/107.046 Summary The Multiple Enclosure Device for Unfractionated Sampling of Air (MEDUSA) flask data from the START-08: Stratosphere-Troposphere Analyses of Regional Transport project are contained in this dataset. This dataset includes measurements made by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) O2 Program on flasks collected by the NCAR/SIO Medusa Whole Air Sampler. These data were collected on the NSF/NCAR Gulfstream V (GV). This data set coincides with the publication of Stephens et al., Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2021. See this publication and the readme for further information.
