IGAC/APARE/PEACAMPOT II
Collection of Aircraft and Ground-based Observation
Data, FY1996 to FY1998
| This CD-ROM is a collection of data from aircraft and intensive ground-based observation from 1996 to 1998, funded by the Global Environment Research Fund of the Environment Agency of Japan. The data were obtained through the project named "Studies on the Development of Comprehensive Model of Atmosphere-Soil and International Cooperative Field Survey to Clarify the Budget of Environment Acidifying Substances in East Asia", one of the themes of the Acid Deposition Area study. This research was recognized as one of the sub-projects for IGAC/APARE (International Global Atmospheric Chemistry Program/East Asian North Pacific Regional Experiment), and carried out as a PEACAMPOT II program involving international cooperative observation and research with researchers in China and Korea. |

The FY1996 aircraft sampling was made on Jan. 11 and 13, 1997 on the following flight tracks: Nagasaki --> over the East China Sea south of Cheju Island, Korea --> Nagasaki. Round trip observations were made between 32º25'N, 128º30'E and32º25'N, 125º30'E. Total two flights were made. The FY1997 aircraft observations were made from Dec. 9 to 12, on nearly the same flight tracks as above, but west most point was slightly moved southward. Round trip observations were made between 32º25'N, 128º30'E and 31º00'N, 126º00'E. Observation flights were made on 9, 11, and 12 Dec. 1997. The FY1998 aircraft observations were carried out from Feb. 2 to 6, 1999, on the same flight tracks as FY1997. Observation flights were made on 2, 4, and 6 Feb. 1999. The altitudes of the observations were approximately 2500 and 500 m. In order to avoid clouds we were forced to observe higher or lower altitudes sometimes. The flight period was about 1 hour at each altitude. Intensive ground-based observations were carried out on Fukue Island, Nagasaki Prefecture. |
