Duck 94 Experiment Descriptions and Data
This page provides access to descriptions of the DUCK94 experiments, summaries of the instruments used and data collected, and
access to some online DUCK94 data.
Summary of Collected Data
A summary of the instruments and of the data collected is available in two formats, Microsoft EXCEL spreadsheet (*.xls) and
Adobe PDF (*.pdf). For a free PDF reader, link to Adobe Acrobat Reader. (Note: Some of the text in the pdf files is very small, we
suggest printing them). The files are arranged according to the month and include information on all the experiments. The files are:
August DUCK94_AugData.PDF (115K) DUCK94_AugData.xls (413K)
October DUCK94_OctData.PDF (205K) DUCK94_OctData.xls (758K)
Others DUCK94_OtherData.PDF (19K) DUCK94_OtherData.xls (83K)
Experiment Descriptions
The following is a list of the experiments including the time period when they were conducted. The links lead to descriptions of the
experiments which were prepared before the experiment was completed. Additional links lead to online data if its available.
Readers interested in particular data are encouraged to contact the lead PI. See: Addresses
