Abstract

It was reported that the strong hunting motions of the balloons were observed just after reaching the ceiling altitude for the balloons launched at Antarctica in the daytime. Such hunting motions are observed at middle latitude only for the nighttime launching. In this article, the thermal analysis of the balloon motions is performed by considering the atmospheric temperature and the environmental radiation conditions at the balloon altitudes. We found that the hunting phenomena over summer Antarctica are caused by the fact that the balloons over Antarctica encounter similar thermal conditions of flights at night over the midlatitude.
