Meteorological and ozone data for the project stratoprobe balloon flights of 8 and 22 July, 1974

Abstract

The meteorological conditions at the earth's surface and aloft for the two research balloon nights of Project stratoprobe on 8 July and 22 July, 1974, are presented and discussed briefly. Trajectories of the balloon flights at float level are traced. The temperature and ozone profiles taken at Churchill before the launches and during the flights, which are necessary for the evaluation and interpretation of some of the experimental data, are also presented.
