TOGA: NOAA WP3D Gust Probe System for TOGA COARE

该项目包括为TOGA COARE计划在两台NOAA WP3Ds上安装、校准和操作准备天线罩型阵风探测系统。快速响应的温度和湿度传感器也将包括用于测量感热通量和潜热通量。以前在NRL P3上安装天线罩系统的经验表明，将获得高质量的湍流数据。还提出了将原始数据简化为适合TOGA COARE研究人员分析的校准时间序列的方法。这项研究是TOGA COARE的重要研究之一，它将对流尺度物理过程与影响气候变率的更大尺度联系起来，在世界上一个特别气候敏感的地区，西太平洋，TOGA COARE的实地站点。

This project comprises the installation, calibration, and operational preparation of the radome type gust probe system on the two NOAA WP3Ds for the TOGA COARE program. Fast-response temperature and humidity sensors will also be included for the measurement of sensible and latent heat fluxes. Previous experience with the installation of the radome system on an NRL P3 indicate that high-quality turbulence data will be obtained. The reduction of the raw data to calibrated time series suitable for analysis by the TOGA COARE investigators is also proposed. This research is important because it serves as one of the studies of TOGA COARE that links convective scale physical processes to the larger scales that impact climate variability in an especially climate sensitive region of the world, the western Pacific Ocean, the field site of TOGA COARE.
