Abstract

Aerosondes are small, long-endurance robotic aircraft that have been designed for flexible and inexpensive operations. The National Science Foundation Office of Polar Programs has recently funded the establishment of an observing system using the Aerosonde at Barrow, Alaska, under its Arctic Long-Term Observations program. To date, the Aerosonde has conducted five different missions in the Arctic, based from Barrow. This paper describes regulatory issues, logistics, aircraft icing, concerns of indigenous peoples, involvement of students in operations, and data that were collected.
