LAS: Laser Absorption Spectroscopy
The Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (LAS) project focused on testing the usefulness of tunable laser absorption spectroscopy for the measurement of atmospheric trace gases. Dr. William Mankin flew a tunable infrared diode laser and a small white... 		1981-01-19 00:00:00 1981-02-09 23:59:59
LESS-80: Lake Effect Snow Storms - 1980
Lake-induced clouds and snowstorms are important elements of winter weather in the Great Lakes Region. The Lake Effect Snow Storms - 1980 (LESS-80) experiment was a continuation of research that began in 1977. This experiment used the, B-80 QueenAir to... 		1980-12-01 00:00:00 1981-01-22 23:59:59
STREX: Storm Transfer and Response Experiment
The main objectives of project Storm Transfer and Response Experiment (STREX) were to determine the physical process of the boundary layers of the atmosphere and ocean in mid-latitude storms and the interactions of the two boundary layers as well as... 		1980-11-15 00:00:00 1980-12-14 23:59:59
SANDHILLS: Nebraska Sandhills Surface Roughness Experiment
The Nebraska Sandhills Surface Roughness Experiment (SANDHILLS) collected measurements of wind speed, temperature and other parameters including pressure and geometric height, utilizing the NCAR QueenAir, A-80 aircraft in the boundary layer over the... 		1980-08-20 00:00:00 1980-08-20 23:59:59
Q80: Queimadas 1980
Vegetative fires in the tropical regions are one of the major sources that are responsible for trace gases in the global atmosphere. Forest clearing is a major component of this category. Queimadas '80 (Q80) utilized the Sabreliner, Model 60 aircraft... 		1980-08-11 00:00:00 1980-09-09 23:59:59
MIC-80: Mountain-Induced Convection - 1980
The Mountain-Induced Convection (MIC) project focused on making measurements of the flow patterns, thermodynamics, and transport properties of moist convective systems induced by the Magdalene Mountains in New Mexico. This was an extension of... 		1980-07-24 00:00:00 1980-08-09 23:59:59
ASE: Arctic Stratus Experiment
The main objective of the Arctic Stratus Experiment (ASE) was to gather an internally consistent set of radioactive and microphysical data on Arctic stratus, as well as to concurrently observe the state parameters, wind and turbulence to provide a... 		1980-06-13 00:00:00 1980-06-30 23:59:59
O3DEST: Ozone Destruction Flux Experiment
The Ozone Destruction Flux Experiment (O3DEST) utilized the QueenAir, A-80 aircraft to make direct eddy flux measurements of ozone with fast response ozone sensors. The measurements were used in two ways: first, as a tracer in the study of boundary... 		1980-06-02 00:00:00 1980-06-20 23:59:59
TexasHIPLEX: Texas High Plains Experiment
The 1980 cloud seeding campaign of the Texas High Plains Experiment (HIPLEX) was conducted in West Texas during the spring/summer of 1980. Texas HIPLEX was managed by the Texas Department of Water Resources under a cooperative agreement with the U.S.... 		1980-05-15 00:00:00 1980-07-15 23:59:59
CZWEP: Coastal Zone Wind Energy Project
