Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) IMPACTS
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/impacts/asos/data101
The Automated Surface Observing Systems (ASOS) IMPACTS dataset consists of a variety of ground-based observations during the Investigation of Microphysics and Precipitation for Atlantic Coast-Threatening Snowstorms (IMPACTS) field campaign.
Description
IMPACTS was a three-year sequence of winter season deployments conducted to study snowstorms over the U.S. Atlantic coast. IMPACTS aimed to (1) Provide observations critical to understanding the mechanisms of snowband formation, organization, and evolution; (2) Examine how the microphysical characteristics and likely growth mechanisms of snow particles vary across snowbands; and (3) Improve snowfall remote sensing interpretation and modeling to significantly advance prediction capabilities.
This ASOS dataset consists of 176 stations within the IMPACTS domain. Each station provides observations of surface temperature, dew point, precipitation, wind direction, wind speed, wind gust, sea level pressure, and the observed weather code. The ASOS data are available from December 29, 2019, through March 1, 2023, in netCDF-4 format.
