Abstract The Polar Mesospheric Cloud Turbulence (PMC Turbo) experiment was designed
to observe and quantify the dynamics of small‐scale gravity waves (GWs) and instabilities
leading to turbulence in the upper mesosphere during polar summer using instruments
aboard a stratospheric balloon. The PMC Turbo scientific payload comprised seven high‐
resolution cameras and a Rayleigh lidar. Overlapping wide and narrow camera field of
views from the balloon altitude of~ 38 km enabled resolution of features extending from~ 20 …
