Abstract

An aircraft instrumentation system for cloud nucleation studies has been developed. It continuously measures and records ice nucleus concentration, aerosol concentration and size distribution in the 0.5–9 μ range, temperature, dew point, static pressure (altitude), dynamic pressure, magnetic heading, ground speed, and drift angle.
