Summary:Sunset over North Bay, Thule, Greenland, is glimpsed from the C-130 research aircraft (owned by the National Science Foundation and operated by NCAR) aircraft during the Tropospheric Ozone Production about the Spring Equinox (TOPSE) experiment. The goal of TOPSE was to investigate the chemical and dynamic evolution of tropospheric chemical composition over mid- to high-latitude continental North America during the winter/spring transition, with particular emphasis on the springtime ozone maximum in the troposphere.
