DYANA project survey
Abstract
Dynamics Adapted Network for the Atmosphere (DYANA) was an international campaign of coordinated ground based, balloon, and rocket borne measurements for the study of middle atmosphere dynamics. It was performed in January through March 1990 in the Northern Hemisphere. A large network of measuring stations was operated, including 70 ground based experiments, 95 ozonsonde and 326 radiosonde releases, and 269 rocket launches. Scientists from twenty countries participated in the campaign. Scientific objectives, campaign structure, and performance of measurements are described.
