Description
The goals of the Global Atmospheric Research Program are to increase our understanding of the general circulation of the atmosphere and to develop bases for extended weather prediction. Data to fulfill these goals may come in part from a lowcost random access doppler system using orbiting satellites to recover meteorological and oceanographic data from freely drifting balloons and buoys. Such a system will be used in a scientific study in the tropics and southern hemisphere in 1974 and will involve the Nimbus satellite and some 300 constant-level balloons.
