Summary
This dataset contains backward trajectories, upper troposphere trajectories,
and flight level data collected over the Indian Ocean during the INDOEX 1999
field project. The data were collected from January 1, 1999 to March 31, 1999
using a Cessna Citation aircraft. Both 5-day and 10-day backward trajectories
are included in this dataset.
