Meteorological space-time profiles of the Ross Sea region's atmospheric boundary layer
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Air temperature, pressure, velocity, relative humidity measurements from near-surface up to around 2km above sea level were taken along the path of four height controlled free floating meteorological balloons released from Terra Nova Bay and flew over the polynya, sea ice and open waters of the Ross Sea.
Description
This data is used to understand and evaluate models of regional climate variability in the near-shore environment of Antarctica.
Furthermore, the Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System (AMPS) is used to simulate case study events and provide seasonal climatology at 3-km resolution.
