Engineering Design for Aircraft-Based Observations of Typhoons [PDF]
Typhoon is the most important disaster-causing weather system in the southeast coastal area of China during summer and autumn. Using aircraft as a mobile observation platform for direct observation of typhoons can obtain critical information about ...

Variations of tropospheric methane over Japan during 1988–2010 [PDF]
We present observations of CH4 concentrations from the lower to upper troposphere (LT and UT) over Japan during 1988–2010 based on aircraft measurements from the Tohoku University (TU).

An SFDI Observer–Based Scheme for a General Aviation Aircraft [PDF]
Abstract The problem of detecting and isolating sensor faults (sensor fault detection and isolation-SFDI) on a general aviation aircraft, in the presence of external disturbances, is considered. The proposed approach consists of an extended Kalman observer applied to an augmented aircraft plant, where some integrators are added to the ...

EUREC 4 A observations from the SAFIRE ATR42 aircraft [PDF]
Abstract. As part of the EUREC4A (Elucidating the role of cloud-circulation coupling in climate) field campaign, which took place in January and February 2020 over the western tropical Atlantic near Barbados, the French SAFIRE ATR42 research aircraft conducted 19 flights in the lower troposphere.

Aircraft observations of a lightning channel in STEPS [PDF]
We analyze a portion of an intracloud lightning channel that was captured on video by an instrumented aircraft and mapped three‐dimensionally by a ground‐based lightning mapping array (LMA). By comparing the electric fields measured on the aircraft with a model which simulates the electrostatic field present after charge was effectively deposited by ...
