Titel
The middle atmosphere dynamics in winter reflected by height-time cross-sections of rocket-based temperature and wind data from Heis Island, Volgograd and Akhtopol
Abstract
More than 1200 rocket flights were used to prepare height-time cross-sections of temperature and wind during individual winters at Heis Island and Volgograd, USSR (since 1978-9), and Akhtopol, Bulgaria (since 1984-5) in the height region of 20 to 80 km. As an example of the compilation, the mean normal behaviour above Volgograd and the behaviour of the winter of 1987-8 at all three stations are described in detail.
