Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

With measurements of the atmospheric microthermal field obtained from 67 independent radiosondes (balloon) scans up to 20–25 km above sea level, from three European sites, we have calculated an average vertical profile of the atmospheric refractive index structure coefficient CN2.
