RISA Relaxed Eddy Accumulator for Surface Flux Measurements on Ground-Based Platforms and Aboard Research Vessels
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The relaxed eddy accumulation (REA) method has become a standard tool for scalar flux measurements near the surface during field experiments. With this technique, turbulent fluxes of relatively slowly reacting species are ...
Dynamic Characteristics of Regional Flows around the Pyrénées in View of the PYREX Experiment. Part I: Analysis of the Pressure and Wind Fields and Experimental Assessment of the Applicability of the Linear Theory
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Pyrénées experiment (PYREX), launched by the French and Spanish meteorological services, had provided an extensive database that was used in the present work to describe the airflow around the Pyrénées and to evaluate ...
Low-Atmosphere Drifting Balloons: Platforms for Environment Monitoring and Forecast Improvement
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: alloons are one of the key observing platforms for the atmosphere. Radiosounding is the most commonly used technique and provides over a thousand vertical profiles worldwide every day. These data represent an essential ...
Toward a Better Determination of Turbulent Air–Sea Fluxes from Several Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An accurate determination of turbulent exchanges between the ocean and the atmosphere is a prerequisite to identify and assess the mechanisms of interaction that control part of the variability in the two media over a wide ...
The CarboEurope Regional Experiment Strategy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Quantification of sources and sinks of carbon at global and regional scales requires not only a good description of the land sources and sinks of carbon, but also of the synoptic and mesoscale meteorology. An experiment ...
