DIAL Full Flight Images (16:50 - 22:26 UT)

Notes:

1. DIAL measures ozone densities, the molecular densities from the RAQMS model (PI: Brad Pierce) have been used to calculate mixing ratios.

2. The DIAL ozone images contain insitu ozone from the FASTOZ instrument (PI: Melody Avery) at DC-8 flight altitudes.

3. Rayleigh attenuation corrections and scattering ratio normalizations have used molecular densities from the RAQMS model (PI: Brad Pierce).

4. A first order aerosol attenuation correction has been applied to the aerosol data using extinction-to-backscatter ratios of 30 (IR) and 45 (VIS).
