Zusammenfassung |
As part of the NASA's INTEX-B mission, the NASA DC-8 and NSF C-130 conducted
three wing-tip to wing-tip comparison flights. The intercomparison flights
sampled a variety of atmospheric conditions (polluted urban, non-polluted,
marine boundary layer, clean and polluted free troposphere). These
comparisons form a basis to establish data consistency, but also should also
be viewed as a continuation of efforts aiming to better understand and
reduce measurement differences as identified in earlier field
intercomparison exercises. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of
140 intercomparisons of data collected as well as a record of the
measurement consistency demonstrated during INTEX-B. It is the primary goal
to provide necessary information for the future research to determine if the
observations from different INTEX-B platforms/instrument are consistent
within the PI reported uncertainties and used in integrated analysis. This
paper may also contribute to the formulation strategy for future instrument
developments. For interpretation and most effective use of these results,
the reader is strongly urged to consult with the instrument principle
investigator. |
