Coordinated Eastern Arctic Experiment (CEAREX) Model Forcing and Data for the GEWEX Cloud System Study Data Integration for Model Evaluation (GCSS-DIME) Entry ID:
GISS_GCSS-DIME_CEAREX
Abstract:
The Coordinated Eastern Arctic Experiment (CEAREX) was a multi-platform field program conducted in the Norwegian Seas and Greenland north to Svalbard from September 1988 through May 1989. Canada, Denmark, France, Norway and the United States participated in the experiment. This case study presents data from 1 Sep 1988 to 31 May 1989 and covers a region from 60N to 80N latitude and from 25W to 25E longitude.
The data for this experiment is under Working Group 5 (Polar Clouds) of the GEWEX Cloud System Study (GCSS) is to improve the parameterization of precipitating convective cloud systems in global climate models (GCMs) and numerical weather prediction models through an improved physical understanding of cloud system processes.
