Gunter, R L; Boatman, J F

Chemical, meteorological, and aerosol measurements were made with the NOAA King Air C-90 aircraft during July 1988 near Bermuda and the east coast of the U.S. The study extended the 1985 and 1986 Western Atlantic Ocean Experiment (WATOX) and initiated coordinated aircraft and ship measurements, following the design of the Coordinated Air Sea Experiment (CASE), in which flights were planned to be made in the vicinity of the NOAA ship Mt. Mitchell. The report lists the objectives of the CASE-WATOX program; the instrumentation used, and the data obtained with the aircraft; a general outline of ship and aircraft coordination and instrumentation; and the aircraft data processing, quality and availability.
