Satellite Observations during TOGA COARE: Large-Scale Descriptive Overview

Monthly Weather Review, 1994
Abstract The 1992/93 Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) was specifically designed to monitor multiscale interactions between the atmosphere and ocean over the western Pacific warm pool. To help meet this objective, satellite observations were used to augment the enhanced COARE conventional data array ...

Diurnal variation of tropical convection during TOGA COARE IOP

Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2005
Diurnal variation of tropical convection and kinematic and thermodynamic conditions was investigated for different large-scale environments of the convectively active and inactive periods by using satellite observations and surface measurements during the Intensive Observation Period (IOP) of the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere/Coupled Ocean ...

Lightning in the Region of the TOGA COARE

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1997
Abstract In the fall of 1992 a lightning direction finder network was deployed in the western Pacific Ocean in the area of Papua New Guinea. Direction finders were installed on Kapingamarangi Atoll and near the towns of Rabaul and Kavieng, Papua New Guinea.

Microwave multisensor rainfall retrieval applied to TOGA-COARE observations

1995 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, IGARSS '95. Quantitative Remote Sensing for Science and Applications, 2002
Rainfall retrieval estimation algorithms, based on passive and active microwave sensor data, are applied to along-track nadir-looking observations of a cyclone over ocean that occurred on February 8, 1993 during TOGA-COARE. The estimated rainfall rates derived from the radiometer data are compared with those obtained from ARMAR radar.

TOGA COARE Aircraft Mission Summary Images: An Electronic Atlas

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1995
An electronic atlas of research aircraft missions in TOGA COARE (Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment) has been prepared and is available on the Internet via WorldWide Web browsers such as Mosaic. These maps are in the form of time sequences of color imagery assembled using the NCAR Zebra software.

Shipboard Radar Rainfall Patterns within the TOGA COARE IFA

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1997
Abstract Radar rainfall measurements over the equatorial western Pacific warm pool were collected by two shipboard Doppler radars as part of the Tropical Oceans Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment during the intensive observing period (November 1992–February 1993).

Radiant heating of the western equatorial Pacific during TOGA‐COARE

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1998
Optical, physical, and biological data collected in the western Pacific warm waterpool (WWP) as part of the Tropical Ocean‐Global Atmosphere‐Coupled Ocean‐Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA‐COARE) are used to assess variations in the transmission of solar radiation through the water column, to investigate factors that regulate in‐water solar ...

Observation of a Quasi-2-Day Wave during TOGA COARE

Monthly Weather Review, 1996
Abstract Detailed structure of the quasi-2-day oscillation observed in the active phase of the Madden–Julian oscillations during the intensive observation period of Tropical Ocean and Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA COARE IOP) was described.

L'expérience internationale TOGA-COARE et sa composante atmosphérique

La Météorologie, 1993
L'experience internationale COARE pour «Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Kesponse Experiment» fait partie du programme TOGA (Tropical Ocean and Global Atmosphere). Cette experience a laquelle ont participe plus de 700 personnes de vingt nations differentes est la plus ambitieuse de ce type depuis l'experience ETGA (GATE en anglais) qui s'etait deroulee en 1974

Airborne rain mapping radar and preliminary observations during TOGA/COARE

Proceedings of IGARSS '93 - IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2002
An Airborne Rain MApping Radar (ARMAR) has been developed by NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for operation on the NASA DC-8 aircraft. ARMAR simulates the TRMM radar system by using the 13.8 GHz frequency and by looking downward and scanning its antenna in the cross-track direction.
