IMET Meteorological Sensor Evaluations of the IMET System

伍兹霍尔海洋研究所将分析和 公布三年来收集的数据 美国国家科学基金会的一个项目，以改善气象 从船舶和浮标测量。 这次WOCE的目标是 长期开发计划是为了提高 准确性、可靠性和可用性 和海气通量的长期测量 船只和浮标的周期。 该计划的一个主要重点是 是改进用于这些测量的传感器， 评估他们的准确性，并减少错误，使这些 测量. 改进的传感器导致 大气压力、降水、湿度、输入 长波辐射、气温、海水温度和 风速和风向。 分析并发布此 长期的传感器数据将为研究界提供 提供了各种传感器性能的完整描述， 可在海上使用的型号。 此外，IMET系统 将记录软件和硬件， 向商业供应商转让技术， 社区

Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will analyze and publish data that has been collected over a three year period on an NSF project to improve meteorological measurements from ships and buoys. The goal of this WOCE long-lead time development program was to improve the accuracy, reliability and availability of meteorological and air-sea flux measurements made over extended time periods from ships and buoys. A major focus of the program was to improve the sensors used for these measurements, evaluate their accuracy, and reduce errors in making those measurements. Improved sensors have resulted for barometric pressure, precipitation, humidity, incoming longwave radiation, air temperature, sea temperature and wind speed and direction. Analyzing and publishing this long-term sensor data will provide the research community with a full description of sensor performance for various models available for use at sea. Additionally, IMET system software and hardware will be documented for purposes of technology transfer to commercial vendors and the research community.
