We describe a new remote sensing system called the Short Wave Aerostat-Mounted Imager (SWAMI). The SWAMI is designed to acquire colocated video imagery and hyperspectral data to study basic remote sensing questions and to link landscape level trace gas fluxes with spatially and temporally appropriat

A highly mobile system for accurate measurements of wind speed and horizontal turbulence in the lowest few hundred meters of the atmosphere is presented. It consists of a light-weight sonde (only 50 g. including batteries that permit 12 h of continuous operation) which can be easily lifted by a smal

A method using balloons as tracers for measuring mean wind velocity in street canyons or mountain valleys has been developed. Tests of the method with numerical experiments showed that the method reproduced an assumed wind field quite well provided that the buoyancy component of the balloon velocity

## Abstract The representativity of station wind measurements can be increased by elimination of sheltering effects caused by small‐scale obstacles. It is shown how correction factors for this purpose can be obtained for each wind azimuth sector from analog wind records of the station itself, by ex
