This research aims to develop a systematic method for measuring atmospheric conditions using civil aircraft.
Operated an instrumented airfreight container on a Boeing 767-300 ER from 1997 to 2002 and on an Airbus A340-600 since 2004.
Utilized various detectors and spectrometers for measuring gases and particle concentrations during flights.
Collected and analyzed aerosol and air samples in multiple laboratories for detailed atmospheric composition.
Achieved comprehensive data on O3, CO2, NOx, hydrocarbons, and aerosols enriched during multiple long-distance flights.
Enhanced detection capabilities with advanced instruments such as differential optical absorption spectrometers (DOAS) measuring trace gases.
Instrumented flights provided valuable insights into atmospheric conditions and potential environmental impacts.
