SAM 2 measurements of the polar stratospheric aerosol, volume 1: October to April 1979
Weekly averages of Antarctic and Arctic stratospheric aerosol data as well as corresponding temperature profiles for the time and place of each stratospheric aerosol measurement (SAM) II measurement during the first 6 months of satellite flight are presented. From the aerosol extinction profile data...
