Through a combination of long-term observations and tailored operations it provides national capability for the study of clouds, rainfall, boundary-layer processes and aerosols, and is particularly well suited as a site for hosting field campaigns involving visiting instruments.\r\n\r\nThe CAO site is located one mile south of Chilbolton Village, 6 miles south of Andover, Hampshire. The site was used as an airfield during the Second World War and is relatively flat and slightly elevated above the surrounding area.\r\n\r\nThe observatory operates more than twenty major instruments, many continuously, while others are available on-demand according to user configuration requirements. The portfolio includes a powerful combination of dual-polarisation Doppler radars, lidars, radiometers, and supporting instruments; the continuous round-the-clock operation of lidar and cloud radar instruments at Chilbolton is unique within the UK. These are supplemented by a suite of meteorological instrumentation including rain gauges, and disdrometers. A multi-wavelength sun photometer provides continuous measurements of aerosol optical depth in clear skies, and contributes to the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET).\r\n\r\nThe Chilbolton Advanced Meteorological Radar (CAMRa) is mounted on a 25-metre, fully steerable antenna, and is able to probe clouds and storms with unparalleled sensitivity and resolution. In addition, zenith-pointing polarimetric, Doppler 35 GHz and 94 GHz cloud radars are routinely operated for detailed microphysical studies of cloud processes and cloud climatology. A transportable, scanning 35 GHz cloud radar system is also hosted at Chilbolton, further enhancing the available capability.\r\n\r\nChilbolton was one of the pilot cloud profiling sites for the CLOUDNET project, and continues to make observations that feed into the Aerosol Clouds and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure (ACTRIS).

The International Foundation High Altitude Research Stations Jungfraujoch and Gornergrat (HFSJG) runs the research station and provides the infrastructure and support for scientific research. Due to its unique place, the year-round accessibility, and the excellent infrastructure, the Jungfraujoch research station is well suited for long-term ground-based monitoring of trace gas concentrations trends in the free troposphere. Due to its location in central Europe and its proximity to anthropogenic greenhouse gas source regions it is also an appropriate study site for European regional source allocations during pollution events. The research activities of EMPA at the Jungfraujoch are conducted within the scope of the Swiss National Air Pollution Monitoring Network (NABEL) funded by the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) and the Global Atmosphere Watch Program (GAW) of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The measurement programme at Jungfraujoch includes continuous in-situ analyses of ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and the sum of nitrogen oxides (NOy). In addition, an extended set of halocarbons and a selection of VOCs (alkanes, aromatics) are measured with a time resolution of four hours since 2000 as a part of SOGE. Daily samples are taken for determination of gaseous SO2 and for particulate sulphur. The concentrations of total suspended particles are continuously observed as well as measured as 48-hour bulk samples. Measurements of methane, nitrous oxide and sulphur hexafluoride were commenced in February 2005 funded by the FOEN. Therefore, the whole set of non-CO2 greenhouse gases is now continuously monitored at the Jungfraujoch.", "keywords": "", "identifier_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/1132/?format=api" ], "platformType": "land_station", "parentPlatform": [], "childPlatform": [], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4763/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4762/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/50159/?format=api" ] }, { "ob_id": 1552, "uuid": "88966b02dc4c4eaba7dbb06b9dfe7a75", "title": "Ostersund, Sweden", "abstract": "Platform.abstract: DETAILS NEEDED", "keywords": "", "identifier_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/1153/?format=api" ], "platformType": "land_station", "parentPlatform": [], "childPlatform": [], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4835/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4834/?format=api" ] }, { "ob_id": 1573, "uuid": "b50e034402424ee29cb8ef99920da286", "title": "Scoresbysund, Greenland", "abstract": "Platform.abstract: DETAILS NEEDED", "keywords": "", "identifier_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/1168/?format=api" ], "platformType": "land_station", "parentPlatform": [], "childPlatform": [], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4887/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4886/?format=api" ] }, { "ob_id": 1577, "uuid": "94ea207081ce4bcaadf1602bf7fbd183", "title": "Sodankyl, Finland", "abstract": "Platform.abstract: DETAILS NEEDED", "keywords": "", "identifier_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/1170/?format=api" ], "platformType": "land_station", "parentPlatform": [], "childPlatform": [], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4897/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4896/?format=api" ] }, { "ob_id": 1581, "uuid": "bf34424157044610b34f690adb860e04", "title": "Zhigansk, Russia", "abstract": "Platform.abstract: DETAILS NEEDED", "keywords": "", "identifier_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/1172/?format=api" ], "platformType": "land_station", "parentPlatform": [], "childPlatform": [], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4907/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/4906/?format=api" ] } ] }
