OVERVIEW OF INSTRUMENTS OPERATIONAL DURING BBC2 |
|
Last update: November 19, 2003
During BBC2 a suite of instruments was operated on the ground, in the tower, under tethered balloons and on airplanes. For instruments that were located in Cabauw for the BBC2 Campaign only we have listed the (planned) date of arrival in Cabauw. Instruments that are (semi-)permanent operational in Cabauw are listed with a "P". For instruments for which we have additional information already available a link to a detailed data-sheet is provided.
We encourage the responsible persons of the different instruments to submit data on their instruments as well and/or a link to an existing data-sheet page. You may use a template of the "data-sheet.html" for this purpose. Send the (partial) completed data-sheet with image(s) and/or internet address to Henk Klein Baltink or Wouter Knap.
For some of the instruments their position in lat,lon coordinates has been measured, click here for the list.
