Flight Info Book

This dataset contains flight and meteorological background information in the form of a four panel image for each flight. The panels are as follows: Upper left: 3D GV flight track with the tropopause. The thermal tropopause is shown in yellow, the 2 pvu surface is shown in purple. Jet streams are shown in blue. The flight track is colored by the ozone value. Lower left: GV ground track in Google Earth. Lat/Lon for the major way points are given. Upper right: space-time interpolated curtain along the flight track (in UT time). Meteorological variables included are: static stability in potential temperature lapse rate (color image), potential vorticity (purple), wind speed (thick black), isentropes (thin black). Vertical coordinates are pressure altitude (km, left) and pressure (log scale, right) Lower right: 3D GV track with map. Vertical coordinates are in Kft. Additional pages with measurement information will be included in the next version.

本数据集包含每架航班以四联图形式呈现的飞行及气象背景信息。各面板内容如下：左上角：展示对流层顶的3D全球定位系统（GV）飞行轨迹，其中热对流层顶以黄色标示，2pvu地表以紫色标示，急流以蓝色标示；飞行轨迹的颜色则由臭氧值决定。左下角：在谷歌地球上展示的GV地面轨迹，并给出主要航点的经纬度。右上角：沿飞行轨迹的空间-时间插值帘幕（以协调世界时计）。包含的气象变量有：位温递减率中的静力稳定性（彩色图像）、位涡（紫色）、风速（粗黑线）、等熵线（细黑线）。垂直坐标包括气压高度（千米，左侧）和气压（对数刻度，右侧）。右下角：带有地图的3D GV轨迹，垂直坐标以英尺为单位。下一版本将包含包含测量信息的附加页面。
