Gardner ATM-9403036 This project continues development and operation of several lidar systems that are being used to explore the composition and structure of the middle atmosphere and includes the analysis of data collected with these instruments during past experimental campaigns. In the ALOHA/ANLC-93 campaigns, measurements were made from the NCAR Elektra aircraft in coordination with an extensive array of ground-based instruments. Data from these campaigns will be analyzed and a workshop will be conducted to discuss the results. The project includes new campaigns using the Na Doppler/Temperature lidars at Urbana and at the Air Force Starfire Optical Range in New Mexico to test the capabilities of the 3.5 m telescope at that facility. These observations will be used to address several fundamental questions related to gravity wave generation, propagation, and dissipation in the atmosphere.

Gardner ATM-9403036该项目继续开发和运行多个LiDAR系统，这些系统用于探索中间气氛的组成和结构，并包括在过去的实验活动中对这些仪器收集的数据的分析。 在Aloha/ANLC-93广告系列中，由NCAR Elektra飞机与广泛的地面仪器进行了协调。 将分析这些活动的数据，并将进行研讨会以讨论结果。 该项目包括使用厄巴纳（Urbana）的NA多普勒/温度激光雷达（NA Doppler/温度激光雷）和新墨西哥州空军星际火车范围的新活动，以测试该设施3.5 m望远镜的能力。 这些观察结果将用于解决与重力波产生，繁殖和大气中的耗散有关的几个基本问​​题。
