  Nighttime Chemistry Affects Ozone Formation
Scientists at the NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, the University of New Hampshire, and the University of Colorado also participated in the study.
The scientists got their first look at the nighttime chemistry during the summer of 2002, when the new instrument was deployed off the coast of New England on the NOAA Research Vessel Ronald H. Brown, as part of an air quality study of the region.
The research was funded by the New England Air Quality Study and NOAA.

As fun as kite flying may be, Research Associates Ben Balsley, Michael Jensen and Rod Frehlich have turned this pastime into a powerful instrument for measuring atmospheric conditions.
The use of kites for atmospheric measurements declined in the 1930's due to the advent of aircraft and inexpensive balloons.
The Cooperative Institute for Research in the Environmental Sciences has shown great promise with the WindTRAM kite born instrument system.

The increased awareness of the environmental consequences of acidic precipitation has resulted in many recent measurements of both the sources of sulfur to the atmosphere and the processes involved in the cycling of sulfur through the atmosphere.
These additional data permit us to re-assess earlier global natural sulfur emission estimates (Andreae, 1986) and to further refine these estimates on regional scales.
