RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN METEOROLOGICAL SENSORS AND MEASURING TECHNIQUES TO 150,000 FEET. PART I. ANALYSIS,

Abstract

A survey was made of recent developments in meteorological sensors and measuring techniques from the surface up to an altitude of 150,000 feet. The results are presented as an annotated bibliography of 698 items, plus an analysis of the current state of the art and of promising developments. Modes of atmospheric sounding are analyzed also. The text includes 108 references. Atmospheric parameters covered are: temperature, pressure, humidity, wind, density, radiation flux (solar and terrestrial), and ozone concentration. (Author)
