When Mountains Blow...A Joint Venture Between DISCOVER, NASA's Global Hydrology Resource Center, and UAH's Information Technology and Systems Center

The poster describes the ongoing efforts of the DISCOVER project to develop automated detection algorithm for mountain gap wind events and resulting coastal ocean upwelling events. A climatology of these events will ultimately be maintained at the Global Hydrology Resource Center (GHRC). The DISCOVER project is funded by the NASA MEaSUREs program. UAH/ITSC staff are collaborating with Remote Sensing Systems personnel who lead the DISCOVER project. The GHRC is the designated NASA DAAC (distributed active archive center) for DISCOVER data sets.

GHRC represented at EED and DAAC Systems Engineering Meeting

Dr. Rahul Ramachandran (NASA MSFC, GHRC DAAC Manager), Helen Conover (UAH, GHRC DAAC Operations Manager) and Manil Maskey (UAH, GHRC Technology Infusion) attended the EED and DAAC Systems Engineering Meeting at GSFC, January 29-31. Dr. Ramachandran led a discussion on an EOSDIS-wide Innovations Lab. All three benefited from the wealth of technical information presented and many face-to-face conversations.

IFloodS APU dataset published

GHRC published the GPM Ground Validation Autonomous Parsivel Unit (APU) IFloodS dataset, collected from several sites in eastern Iowa during the spring of 2013. The APU dataset for the Iowa Flood Studies (IFloodS) Field Experiment provides precipitation data including precipitation drop size, counts, and distribution. The APU is an optical disdrometer based on single particle extinction that measures particle size and fall velocity.
