• The third in a series of Atmospheric Environment Service Field Studies in the Alberta Oil Sands Study Area was carried out during June 16-27, 1977. The study was designed to cover the same objectives as those of the previous two studies but for summer conditions. As a consequence, the AES experimental program was similar to the previous experiments. In addition, the program was extended to include observations of particulate dispersion in the Great Canadian Oil Sands (GCOS) plume, using a mobile laser radar (LIDAR). Solar irradiance was also measured at several solar elevations during this study.
