(moved to Steamboat <br />KU Band Site in February) <br />Indium: North of Hayden, Colorado <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />7) Storm Peak Lab: Located on top of Storm Peak at Steamboat <br />Springs at an elevation of 10,200 feet. <br />Storm Peak Lab was equipped at various <br />times with instrumentation to measure <br />cloud and aerosol characteristics of air <br />as it passes over the mountaintop. <br /> <br />8) Pibals: Pibals were launched using double theodolite <br />tracking during some experiments. <br /> <br />9) Tethersonde: Tethersondes were used occasionally during <br />specific airflow experiments. <br /> <br />10) Probe Stations: 25 remote weather stations were provided <br />by the Bureau of Reclamation for continuous <br />measurements of wind, temperature, pressure, <br />relative humidity, and precipitation. <br /> <br />Project operations were designed to maximize information concerning <br /> <br />the changes which occur in cloud systems as air passes over a mountain <br /> <br />II <br />II <br />~ <br />III <br />II <br /> <br />barrier. To achieve this goal effectively, instrumentation was installed <br /> <br />along a west-east line along the Yampa Valley, perpendicular to the <br /> <br />Park Range. Aircraft flight tracks were along this line. The tracks <br /> <br />were centered on four points and designed so that vertical soundings <br /> <br />were performed in the same airmass as it moved from west to east <br /> <br />across the barrier. Tracks were modified in flight to accomodate <br />
