Airborne data from mounted in-situ instruments on board the NASA ER-2 aircraft during the Airborne Antarctic Ozone Experiment (AAOE-87) Project

The Airborne Antarctic Ozone Experiment (AAOE) aimed to study chemical composition and physical parameters in the Antarctic during the development of the Antarctic Ozone Hole in August and September 1987. The data is primarily that collected onboard the NASA ER-2 and DC-8 aircraft, along with ozonesonde data collected at four Antarctic stations: Halley Bay, McMurdo, Palmer Station, and the South Pole. The experiment tested the chemical and dynamical theories of the ozone hole using the aircraft data in theoretical computer models of the chemistry and dynamics of the stratosphere. The data include atmospheric composition, meteorological parameters, aerosol data and cloud data.

Statement
Data were collected during August and September 1987 onboard the NASA ER-2 and DC-8 aircraft, aduring August and September 1987. The data is primarily that collected onboard the NASA ER-2 and DC-8 aircraft, and at four Antarctic stations: Halley Bay, McMurdo, Palmer Station, and the South Pole. Copy of CR-ROM published by NASA. The data are held on CD-ROM at the BADC.
