This report presents an analysis of stable layer characteristics during the DYNAMO field campaign conducted in July 2013. Utilizing a dataset from DYNAMO sonde measurements at Male, Gan, and Diego Garcia, we delve into the features of stable atmospheric layers. The study incorporates data from DigiCora RS92 and the PNNL Combined Remote Sensor Retrieval Algorithm to examine vertical profiles up to 20 km with fine resolution. The reported mean freezing levels and their variability based on atmospheric stability are analyzed, highlighting significant findings relevant to meteorological research.
