In this paper the impact of using different measurement platforms with different qualities is discussed. Data collected during three different measurement campaigns were used in this study. The data collected over Iowa, USA, in July, 2005, which were from a low flying airplane (low altitude and high dynamics), a data set collected from a stratospheric balloon outside Boulder, USA, in April, 2006 (high altitude, low dynamics), and a data set collected at the Boulder Atmospheric Observatory (BAO) outside Boulder, USA, in April, 2006 (low altitude, stationary).
