Scientific paper

Balloon experiments which are part of preparation of a worldwide study of tropospheric air injection into the stratosphere, the so-called stratospheric fountain, are reviewed. Flight results show that the water-vapor instruments developed are convenient for measuring mixing ratios as low as 1 ppmv expected in the equatorial region, provided the flight is long enough to allow a complete outgassing of the gondola, which requires 10 days. The flights also demonstrate that technical problems still exist in the balloon and data systems.
