Wyoming PAM Project (Preliminary Aerosol Measurements).

Abstract

In 1971 the University of Wyoming undertook the Wyoming PAM Project, a project designed to build a radiometric instrument to be placed on an Airforce' satellite. The purpose of the PAM experiment was to provide first-look type of information from space on the concentration and verticle profile of aerosol particles in the stratosphere. During the project, the University of Wyoming constructed and built two models of the preliminary aerosol measurement package. These particular models were tested, and one of the models was designated as a flight model.
