HALO - High Altitude and Long Range Research Aircraft

gefördert durch DFG

Our group is coordinating the DFG Priority Program: HALO-SPP 1294 on "Atmospheric and Earth System Research with HALO". The SPP coordinates activities by German universities that are funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation). The HALO-SPP supports research for the investigation of atmospheric and Earth system related processes. HALO is a Gulfstream G-550 aircraft specifically equipped with numerous in situ and remote sensing instruments and brings together scientists from a wide variety of disciplines including physics, chemistry, meteorology, geosciences, mathematics, informatics, engineering and others to maximize the scientific output and to carry out multi-disciplinary research. Details on the HALO-SPP are provided on the HALO-SPP webpage:

Within the HALO-SPP, our group participates in different missions that partly are coordinated by LIM. Our scientific aim using HALO is to investigate the radiative effects of different clouds regimes. We operate spectral solar remote sensing intruments including the SMART-Albedometer which allows to measure spectral up- und downward solar flux densities and thus provides a measure of cloud radiative effects. Detailed information on the specific scientific aims of the indicidual HALO mission are provided here:
