Name: Title / Summary Begin Date (UTC) End Date (UTC)
NaLidar: NaLidar
During the Sodium Lidar (NaLidar) project, airborne lidar measurements were taken over the central US of atmospheric density perturbations in the upper stratosphere and lower mesosphere and of the mesospheric sodium layer to test a new sodium lidar... 		1986-11-13 20:50:26 1986-11-18 05:42:00
FIRE: First ISLSCP Regional Experiment
The overall goal of the International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project (ISLSCP) is to improve our understanding of satellite measurements relating particularly to the fluxes of momentum, heat, water vapor, and carbon dioxide from land... 		1986-10-13 18:24:53 1986-11-02 21:58:49
CARP: Carpenter Wyoming study
Four PAMII stations were deployed near Carpenter, Wyoming in a one-mile square network during September and October, 1986. These stations provided background meteorological information and were used in particular to determine the convergence of the... 		1986-09-15 00:00:00 1986-10-15 23:59:59
MIST: Microburst and Severe Thunderstorm Experiment
Project MIST involved fourty-one PAMII stations arranged in a dense cluster around the Huntsville, Alabama airport during June and July, 1986. The full PAM field base was deployed with one of the doppler radars, and an aircraft tracking system, and... 		1986-05-25 00:00:00 1986-07-31 23:59:59
SPACE: Satellite Precipitation and Cloud Experiment
The SPACE project operated as an adjuct to the Microburst and Severe Thunderstorm (MIST) experiment, which in turn was part of the Cooperative Huntsville Meterological Experiment (COHMEX). 11 PAM-II stations were deployed in a wide circle around... 		1986-05-25 00:00:00 1986-07-31 23:59:59
TGP-III: Trace Gas Profiles III
This project was a continued study of the influence of convective clouds and thunder storms on the distribution of tropospheric trace gases including N0X CO and O3 and on the distribution of solar UV radiation. The aircraft measurements were the... 		1986-05-14 11:56:00 1986-05-23 12:31:50
HAPEX-MOBILHY: Hydrological Atmospheric Pilot Experiment - Modelisation du BiLan Hydrique
The major goal of the Hydrologic Atmospheric Pilot EXperiment (HAPEX) was to measure the hydrological budget and evaporation flux at the scale of a general circulation model grid square (i.e. 10 km2). In support of this goal, networks were operated for... 		1986-05-09 11:21:36 1986-07-15 10:53:49
COHMEX: Cooperative Huntsville Meterological Experiment (COHMEX)
This project was an combined effort in support of Microburst and Severe Thunderstorm (MIST)  and NASA-sponsored Satellite Precipitation and Cloud Experiment (SPACE), including support of Gregory Forbes (Pennsylvania State University), V.N. Bringi ... 		1986-05-01 00:00:00 1986-07-31 23:59:59
FASINEX: Frontal Air-Sea INteraction EXperiment
The purpose of the Frontal Air-Sea INteraction EXperiment (FASINEX) was to study the oceanic and atmospheric dynamics and interactions around a sea surface temperature front. The experiment took place south of Bermuda and involved several ships,... 		1986-02-16 12:54:26 1986-02-25 18:35:33
GALE: Genesis of Atlantic Lows Experiment
The Genesis of Atlantic Lows Experiment (GALE) was a four year cooperative research project that studied winter cyclones along the East Coast of the United States. The aircraft were used during an intensive two month field program, in which the role of... 		1986-01-16 15:43:20 1986-03-13 23:59:00
