Book Description
An existing airborne installation is described and its potentialities are outlined. The particular properties of a jet aircraft (movability, speed, altitude) combined with appropriate ionospheric sounding equipment (receivers, optical apparatus, magnetometer, and cosmic ray recorders) constitute a unique capability. After reviewing past results obtained from more limited airborne equipment, an outline of operations and objectives is given, pertaining to: Magnetic Shell Propagation, Arctic Radio Physics, Eclipse Effects, Dumping of Trapped Electrons, Equatorial Electrojet, Nuclear Detonation Effects, Ionospheric Drifts, Airglow and Cosmic Ray Surveys. (Author).

Book Description
PAGEOPH, stratosphere, these differences provide us with new evidence, interpretation of which can materially help to advance our understanding of stratospheric dynamics in general. It is now weil established that smaller-scale motions-in particular gravity waves and turbulence-are of fundamental importance in the general circulation of the mesosphere; they seem to be similarly, if less spectacularly, significant in the troposphere, and probably also in the stratosphere. Our understanding of these motions, their effects on the mean circulation and their mutual interactions is progressing rapidly, as is weil illustrated by the papers in this issue; there are reports of observational studies, especially with new instruments such as the Japanese MV radar, reviews of the state of theory, a laboratory study and an analysis of gravity waves and their effects in the high resolution "SKYHI" general circulation model. There are good reasons to suspect that gravity waves may be of crucial significance in making the stratospheric circulation the way it is (modeling experience being one suggestive piece of evidence for this). Direct observational proof has thus far been prevented by the difficulty of making observations of such scales of motion in this region; in one study reported here, falling sphere observations are used to obtain information on the structure and intensity of waves in the upper stratosphere.
