CEDAR: Student Lab Access to Experiments at Sondrestrom, Greenland

PIS提议开发一个实时互动实验室，允许阿拉斯加的本科生和研究生在NSF Sondrestrom雷达天文台进行和参与实时实验。这项提议的目标的一个例子是能够实时修改雷达模式，以利用某些地球物理条件，如极光里程计吸收，或PCA事件。将Sondrestrom数据流与NCSA标准接口的潜在优势将是增强学生的数据显示和分析能力，并提供连接超级计算机模型的桥梁。

The PIs propose to develop a real-time interactive laboratory permitting undergraduate and graduate students in Alaska to conduct and participate in real-time experiments at the NSF Sondrestrom Radar Observatory. An example of this proposal's objective is the ability in real-time to modify the radar mode to take advantage of certain geophysical conditions such as an auroral riometer absorption, or PCA event. The potential advantage of interfacing the Sondrestrom data stream to the NCSA standards would be to enhance the data display and analysis capabilities of students and provide a bridge to supercomputer models.
