Description

The CAMEX-3 Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Laser Hygrometer datasets consists of timeline measurements of water vapor content colllected during DC-8 flights flown during August and September of 1998. The JPL Laser Hygrometer acquired in situ measurments of the free airstream beyond the boundary layer within the immediate proximity of the aircraft along the flight track.
