The report includes an atlas of flight tracks superimposed on DMSP satellite cloud images and tabular data from all successfully launched dropwindsondes. The document is not intended to replace the more complete data sets provided through the international MONEX data management system using various media such as magnetic tapes and microfilm. However, it is hoped that MONEX scientists find the document useful in gaining an overview of the total U.S. SMONEX aircraft operation and in selecting flights, flight segments and dropwindsonde data of interest.
