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...

From the aerosol extinction profile data, contours of aerosol extinction as a function of altitude and longitude or time are plotted. Aerosol optical depths are calculated for each week. Polar stratospheric clouds at altitudes of about 22 km were observed during the Arctic winter at various times and locations. A representative sample of the first 6 months of data to be used in atmospheric and climatic studies is outlined.
