| Abstract | From July 18 to August 31, 1988, the NAE Twin Otter Atmospheric Research Aircraft was operated from Muskoka, Ontario in an experiment designed to test a new computer model for the long-range transport of atmospheric pollutants. The 1988 Eulerian Model Evaluation Field Study was a collaborative effort with the Atmospheric Environment Service of Canada and the Ontario Ministry of the Environment. The Twin Otter flew 50 flights and 122.8 hours in support of this study. This report is intended to serve as a working reference for scientists utilizing Twin Otter data from the project. It includes flight summaries, atmospheric profile data, and details on the instrumentation, software and flight procedures used. A discussion is presented on tests conducted on the wind measuring system on the aircraft and recommendations are given for improvements in instrumentation and operational procedures for the next in this series of atmospheric pollution experiments. |
