Meteorological Instrumentation System on the T-28 Thunderstorm Research Aircraft

摘要: Abstract A T-28 aircraft was specially modified to permit gathering in situ cloud physics and dynamics data from the interior regions of hailstorms. Since its first use 1969, instrumentation acquisition system has undergone evolutionary changes as newer instruments more sophisticated electronic products have become available. unique complement that measure record hydrometeor sizes concentrations been assembled provide observations particle size spectra over full range droplets hailstones. The recording are described this paper, planned future enhancements will entail greater on-board computers discussed.
