There is little information on the distribution of trace gases in the stratosphere due to the inherent difficulty and high cost of air sampling above aircraft altitudes. This paper presents project TUBULAR, implemented under the REXUS/BEXUS programme. TUBULAR is a student-led stratospheric balloon e...
