title: Stratospheric measurements of cosmic rays in the 19th-22nd solar activity cycles.
abstract: Balloon measurements of cosmic rays were made practically every day at several locations of the former USSR and in Antarctica over a period of more than 30 years. These measurements provide a means for assessment and control of ionizing radiation at the altitudes from ground level up to 30-35 km.
