Abstract:
This data set contains meteorological and radiometeric data from the
NCAR Sabreliner aircraft that was collected during the 1986 FIRE
Cirrus IFO.
The NCAR Sabreliner research aircraft is a Rockwell International Sabreliner
Model 60 aircraft, a low-wind twin-jet monoplane. The NCAR instumentation
that measured the data described above consisted of:
1.
... Aircraft Position, Velocity and Attitude
-- Litton LTN-51 INS (Inertial Navigation System)
2. Static Pressure
-- Rosemount Model 1201F1 Pressure Transducer (Fuselage Port)
3. Temperatures
-- Rosemount Type 102 Non-dieced and Dieced Sensors (with Rosemount Model
510BH Amplifiers)
4. Dew Point and Humidity
-- EG&G Model 137-C3 Dew Point Hygrometers
-- NCAR Model LA-3 Lyman-alpha Hygrometer
5. Flow Angle Sensors
-- Rosemount Model 858 Gust Probe
-- Rosemount Model 1221FVL Differential Pressure Transducer
6. Cloud Physics
-- Rosemount 871A Icing Rate Detector
7. Radiation Irradiances
-- Shortwave Radiation (.3 - 2.8 microns): RAF Modified Epply Model PSP
Pyranometers
-- Near Infrared Radiation (.7 - 2.8 microns): RAF Modified Epply
Model PSP Pyranometers
-- Infrared Radiation (4 - 50 microns): RAF Modified Epply Model PIR
Pyrgeometers
