CEAREX/Haakon Mosby Meteorology Atlas
Abstract
The Coordinated Eastern Arctic Experiment (CEAREX) was conducted in the vicinity of the Svalbard Island group from September 1988 to May 1989. Personnel aboard the R/V Haakon Mosby participated in the Seasonal Ice Zone Experiment (SIZEX) phase of the project, taking continuous surface and upper air measurements during the period 25 Feb-23 Mar 89. This report describes equipment and methods used in data acquisition and analysis, and summarizes observations by presenting data in three forms: (1) Time series plots of surface pressure, wind speed and direction, air temperature, dew point temperature, and relative humidity; (2) Vertical soundings of potential temperature, potential dew point temperature, specific humidity, and wind speed and direction; and (3) Daily sea level pressure analyses.
