Studies of middle atmosphere dynamics under the Polar Patrol Balloon (PPB) project: Present status and future plans
Studies of middle atmospheric dynamics under the PPB project have two aspects. On one hand, they are necessary to predict a feasibility of PPB flight. Recent studies on global-scale disturbances (planetary waves) over the Antarctic stratosphere suggest that the mid-summer (December-January) flight a...
