Eine Apparatur zur Messung des vertikalen Wind-, Temperatur- und Feuchteprofils über dem Ozean

During the 1965 Atlantic Expedition the R/V "Meteor" was stationed on the equator for several weeks. In order to obtain the vertical flux of heat and momentum vertical profiles of dry and wet bulb temperatures and of wind speed were measured. The water temperature, and the dry and wet bulb temperatures of aspirated psychrometers were taken by means of platinum resistance thermometers. The wind speeds were obtained by contact anemometers and small generator type anemometers. The instruments were mounted at heights between 1 m and 9 m at a meteorological buoy. Connected by floating cables the buoy lay 300 m away from the ship, free of its disturbances
