Background:
- Cloud genesis, radiation transfer and chemical processes in Arctic during polar nights dramatically differ from those during polar days.
- Despite numerous airborne field campaigns in Arctic regions, all of them were conducted during polar days or during polar sunrise or sunset.
- Until now, the Arctic environment during nighttime remains poorly explored.
- PONEX will conduct the first Arctic polar night airborne field campaign.
Airborne campaigns to study Arctic during last 20 years
and were performed during polar day.
