Presentation Transcript

  1. PCAPS ISS Wind Profiler Site 915 Wind Profiler with RASS WXT Met Tower 449 Wind Profiler • Two wind profiler radars : • 915 MHz wind profiler • Commercial system • Winds and RASS • 449 MHz wind profiler • Experimental System • Faster and higher winds

  2. Wind Profiler Radars 915 profiler goes lower and has RASS 449 profiler goes higher and makes faster wind measurements

  3. RASS Radio Acoustic Sounding System Better range than expected Useful but occasional artifacts Low resolution Sharp gradients can be biased

  4. ISS Sounding Site Met. tower 10m winds GPS Water Vapor Ceilometer Sounding Web Cam Temp, RH, P Sodar Solar Radn Helium Microwave Radiometer Soundings, surface met, sodar, GPS Integrated Water Vapor, Profiling Microwave Radiometer, Webcam

  5. ISS Summary • Two ISS sites • Most systems working well • Experimental 449 profiler better than expected • RASS working better than expected • Sodar not working at all • Microwave profiling radiometer working • ~ 60 Soundings launched • ~ 50 Radiosondes remaining
