<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The constant volume balloons will be released from the same sites <br />as the SF6. This will allow wind data collection starting from the time <br />the SF6 is released and extending through the time period when it is <br />sampled. The balloon wind information will be used kinematically to <br /> <br /> <br />explain the SF6 results. The balloon wind information will be valuable <br /> <br />in its own right as well because, unlike the SF6 data which are point <br /> <br /> <br />. values, it is collected over a sizeable region of space and for a signi- <br /> <br /> <br />ficant period of time. The balloon wind information will be especially <br /> <br /> <br />valuable when studied in conjunction with the C-band Doppler radar data. <br /> <br /> <br />Detailed field logs will be kept as part of the SF6 and balloon <br /> <br /> <br />experiments. In addition to containing notations of equipment problems <br /> <br /> <br />the logs will include comments on the approximate track taken by each of <br /> <br /> <br />the balloons and the qualitative indications therefrom of the wind velo- <br /> <br /> <br />city. These detailed field logs will be valuable aids in debriefings <br /> <br /> <br />conducted by the Field Director ~fter leach episode of data collection. <br /> <br /> <br />The debriefings will be an important part of the studies. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />-31- <br />
