Abstract

Some general remarks are presented on the design of a definitive field experiment on windborne droplet drift and deposition in aerial forestry spray applications. The role of the uncontrollable parameters, i.e. forest properties and, in particular, meteorology, is emphasized. Then, the variables in one aspect of the problem, the flightline offset distance, are discussed and an example of a suitable, i.e. economical but adequate, field experiment is described.
