Additional Information
The objective of this flight was to measure concentrations of aerosol across the study area for flux calculations; as well as capture smoke and cloud properties.

Fluxes were measured near Bolivia and Porto Velho. In Rondonia the optical thickness was 2, in Cuiaba 0.4, and Alta Floresta 1.0.
