TARFOX-LASE: Flight 1 -- Aerosol and Water Vapor Distributions
Information Regarding TARFOX-LASE Images
Flight 1 / Profile Focus / 14 July 96
Color images of LASE (ER-2) Flight Track
Flight tracks are shown for when LASE data are available. The track has been split into segments to enhance labeling of UT time, therefore, aerosol and water vapor images can be easily linked to the ER-2 LASE track. Two points of interest are normally placed on the map of the local area. These are Wallops Island and the TARFOX focal point for that day (Point A, if available): | 17:12:18 -- 17:36:49 |
Aerosols -- Color images of the Relative Aerosol Backscatter
Entire Flight Summary:|Altitude Scale: 0 - 20 km |
Subset Images (Altitude Scale 1 - 20 km and by UT):| 17:12:18 - 17:36:49 |
Subset Images (Altitude Scale 1 - 8 km and by UT):| 17:12:18 - 17:36:49 |

LASE 2 Minute Averaged Relative Aerosol Backscatter Profiles (error bars represent 1 standard deviation) at Point A and Wallops Island (by UT):
No profiles for this flight. Flight 1 aborted shortly after take off due to LASE cooling pump failure.
