Technical Monitoring Provided by ASAP
-
NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) and the NOAA Earth Science Research
Laboratory (ESRL) are to enable the direct assimilation of ASAP cloud microphysical
properties into the National Centers for Environmental Prediction’s Rapid
Update Cycle (numerical weather prediction) model. The principal investigators
for this project are Dr. Patrick Minnis of NASA LaRC and Dr. Stan Benjamin of
the NOAA ESRL Global Systems Division. This is a 3-year grant awarded in 2005.
-
National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and the University of Wisconsin
CIMSS to enhance the Graphical Turbulence Guidance decision support tool (DST)
produced by the FAA AWRP’s Turbulence PDT for the NOAA Aviation Weather Ceneter’s
Aviation Digital Data Service (ADDS). The project is entitled, “Decision Support
for Aircraft Avoidance of Convectively-Induced Turbulence Due to Thunderstorms”.
This project has Dr. Robert Sharman (NCAR) as its principal investigator.
This is 3-year grant awarded in 2005.
-
University of Maryland – Baltimore County to enhance a number of volcanic ash
DSTs with NASA AIRS and Aura/OMI observations. The project is entitled,
“Near Real-time NASA Volcanic Cloud Data for NOAA, FAA and USGS Decision
Support Systems.” This project has Dr. Arlin Krueger as its principal
investigator. This is a 3-year grant awarded in 2005.
-
National Center for Atmospheric Research and the University of Wisconsin CIMSS
enhance the Oceanic Convective Weather Product developed by the FAA AWRP at
NCAR. This is a 1-year project entitled “Oceanic Convective Weather Diagnosis
and Nowcasting.” This project has Dr. Cathy Kessinger (NCAR) as its principal
investigator.
