This proposed work is the continued operation of the Antarctic Meteorological Research Center (AMRC) for three years through 2009. AMRC is a meteorological data acquisition and management system with nodes at McMurdo Station and at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. The system is a resource and archive for meteorological research and a test bed for improving operational synoptic forecasting. Its basis is a computer-based system for organizing, manipulating, and integrating antarctic environmental data, developed by the University of Wisconsin. It captures the flow of meteorological information from polar orbiting satellites, automatic weather stations, operational station synoptic observations, and research project data, producing a mosaic of antarctic satellite images on an operational basis. It also receives environmental data products, such as weather forecasts, from outside Antarctica, and acts as a repository for existing archived databases. The AMRC provides customized weather and climate information for a variety of antarctic users, including aircraft and ship operations of the US Antarctic Program. Currently the AMRC produces the Antarctic Composite Infrared Image, a mosaic of images from four geostationary and three polar-orbiting satellites, which is used for both forecasting and research purposes. In the current time period, AMRC will develop a data exploration/classification toolkit based on self-organizing maps to produce a new, satellite-based antarctic cloud climatology for regions. The AMRC will also be at the center of the evolving Antarctic-Internet Data Distribution (Antarctic-IDD) system, a reliable and formalized means of sharing and distributing Antarctic data among operational and research users. ***

这项拟议的工作是南极气象研究中心(AMRC)在2009年之前的三年内继续运作。AMRC是一个气象数据采集和管理系统，在麦克默多站和威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校设有节点。该系统是气象研究的资源和档案，是改进业务天气预报的试验台。它的基础是威斯康星大学开发的一个基于计算机的系统，用于组织、处理和整合南极环境数据。它捕捉极轨卫星、自动气象站、作业站天气观测和研究项目数据的气象信息流，在业务基础上产生南极卫星图像的马赛克。它还接收来自南极洲以外的环境数据产品，如天气预报，并充当现有存档数据库的储存库。AMRC为各种南极用户提供定制的天气和气候信息，包括美国南极计划的飞机和船只作业。目前，AMRC制作了南极复合红外图像，这是由四颗地球静止卫星和三颗极地轨道卫星拍摄的马赛克图像，用于预报和研究目的。在本时期内，南极气候研究中心将开发一个基于自组织地图的数据探索/分类工具包，为各区域编制新的基于卫星的南极云气候学。AMRC还将是不断发展的南极-互联网数据分发(南极-IDD)系统的中心，该系统是在业务和研究用户之间共享和分发南极数据的可靠和正式的手段。***
