High-Resolution Atmospheric Sensing of Multiple Atmospheric Variables Using the DataHawk Small Airborne Measurement System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he DataHawk small airborne measurement system provides in situ atmospheric measurement capabilities for documenting scales as small as 1 m and can access reasonably large volumes in and above the atmospheric boundary layer ...
Numerical Modeling of Multiscale Dynamics at a High Reynolds Number: Instabilities, Turbulence, and an Assessment of Ozmidov and Thorpe Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: high?Reynolds number direct numerical simulation (DNS) is employed to explore the instability and turbulence dynamics accompanying an idealized multiscale flow that approximates such environments observed throughout the ...
Overview of Small Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aircraft for Meteorological Sampling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ampling the atmospheric boundary layer with small unmanned aircraft is a difficult task requiring informed selection of sensors and algorithms that are suited to the particular platform and mission. Many factors must be ...
Air-Deployed Microbuoy Measurement of Temperatures in the Marginal Ice Zone Upper Ocean during the MIZOPEX Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ir-deployed microbuoys (ADMBs) were developed as a means of measuring subsurface temperatures in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) over campaign-duration time scales to better understand how MIZ surface layer heat content ...
Fine Structure, Instabilities, and Turbulence in the Lower Atmosphere: High-Resolution In Situ Slant-Path Measurements with the DataHawk UAV and Comparisons with Numerical Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA new platform for high-resolution in situ measurements in the lower troposphere is described and its capabilities are demonstrated. The platform is the small GPS-controlled DataHawk unmanned aerial system (UAS), ...
Advancing Unmanned Aerial Capabilities for Atmospheric Research
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Bird’s-Eye View: Development of an Operational ARM Unmanned Aerial Capability for Atmospheric Research in Arctic Alaska
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThorough understanding of aerosols, clouds, boundary layer structure, and radiation is required to improve the representation of the Arctic atmosphere in weather forecasting and climate models. To develop such ...
Assimilation of a Coordinated Fleet of Uncrewed Aircraft System Observations in Complex Terrain: EnKF System Design and Preliminary Assessment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Development of Community, Capabilities, and Understanding through Unmanned Aircraft-Based Atmospheric Research: The LAPSE-RATE Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Because unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) offer new perspectives on the atmosphere, their use in atmospheric science is expanding rapidly. In support of this growth, the International Society for Atmospheric Research Using ...
