The ASK-16 motorized glider: an airborne eddy covariance platform to measure turbulence, energy, and matter fluxes by I. Wiekenkamp, A. K. Lehmann, A. Bütow, J. Hartmann, S. Metzger, S. Metzger, T. Ruhtz, C. Wille, M. Zöllner, T. Sachs, T. Sachs

“…Here, we introduce an airborne eddy covariance measurement platform based on an ASK-16 touring motor glider (TMG; also referred to as a power glider, hereafter referred to as motorized glider), which is equipped to measure the three-dimensional (3D) wind vector, and atmospheric conditions, and we derive airborne turbulent fluxes for the use of measurement campaigns over European landscapes. …”
