Field Experiments

EPIC
Eastern Pacific Investigation Of Climate (Sep 1 - Oct 12, 2001.) Research scientist on board the NOAA-WP3-43 on missions:
sep 16, 2001 - ITCZ
sep 20, 2001 - ITCZ
sep 21, 2001 - RECONN Tropical Storm Juliette"
sep 28, 2001 - ITCZ(aborted due to engine problem)
Oct 3, 2001 - ITCZ
Oct 5, 2001 - ITCZ
Oct 6, 2001 - ITCZ/Intercomparison
Oct 7, 2001 - ITCZ
During this experiment I was mainly concerned with the collection and analysis of Radar Data.
