During the springs of 1983, 1986 and 1989, the Arctic Gas and Aerosol Sampling Program (AGASP) conducted major aircraft-based field experiments over much of the western Arctic. As part of the AGASP research efforts, several regions of the springtime Arctic atmosphere were probed by the NOAA WP-3D Or...
