Abstract

The PI has proposes to continue contribute to LASP in the post-field data synthesis and observation-model integration. His work is summarized for each of the tasks he proposed. (a) summarize the mean conditions and variability during the field campaign in comparison to the climatology to provide a weather and climate background for other LASP PIs' data interpretations; (b) identify periods with specific atmospheric and oceanic events that deserve special attention from LASP PIs for their data processing, interpretation, and case studies; (c) organize a special data workshop for LASP and DYNAMO PIs to address issues related to data QC, release, and comparisons; (d) coordinate LASP and DYNAMO PIs to create an air-sea integrated data set that cover the multiscale variability during the entire field campaign; (e) facilitate field and modeling PIs collaboration in observation-modeling integration in terms of modeling simulations of case studies, validations, and parameterization improvement; (f) synthesize the main achievement of LASP and DYNAMO in both field observations and modeling activities.
