Book excerpt: As part of the United States contribution to the First GARP Global Experiment, an array of automatic data buoys was established in the Arctic Basin early in 1979. The objectives of the buoy program were to provide measurements of surface atmospheric pressure over the basin and to define the large scale field of motion of the sea ice. This report begins with an overview of the measurement program and the data processing procedures. This overview is followed by a presentation of processed data in two forms. The first consists of the time series of position, pressure, and temperature for each buoy, in tabular form. The second consists of charts of surface pressure. In addition to the isobars, these charts display the daily ice displacements. For both the tabular and graphical data the reporting interval is one day. The report covers the period 19 January 1979, when the first buoys were deployed, through 31 December 1979. Many of the buoys continued to operate well into 1980, and in April 1980 thirteen new buoys were deployed. It is planned to maintain the measurement program at about this level for several more years. Raw data from the measurement program are available in real time on the Global Telecommunications System of the World Meteorological Organization. An appendix to this report describes the processed data sets which are available to interested users. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A network of automatic data buoys for monitoring synoptic-scale fields of pressure, temperature, and ice motion throughout the Arctic Basin was recommended by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences in 1974. Based on the Academy's recommendation, the Arctic Ocean Buoy Program was established by the Polar Science Center, University of Washington, in 1978 to support the Global Weather Experiment. Operations began in early 1979 and the program continued through 1990 with funding from various agencies. In 1991, the Arctic Ocean Buoy Program was superseded by the International Arctic Buoy Program (IABP), although the basic objective remains the same: to establish and maintain a network of drifting buoys in the Arctic Ocean to collect data needed for real-time operations and meteorological and oceanographic research. This report is one in a series of data reports that began in 1979. Data for this report were processed as outlined in the 1986 data report with the exception that the authors have reverted to 3-hourly interpolation of sea-level pressure and air temperature. The average daily temperature was calculated from these eight measurements. The tables give daily data for each buoy identified by its Argos number. The data are interpolated values for location and pressure at 1200 GMT. The value is not given if it is not reliably known. The temperature is averaged over the eight synoptic intervals to eliminate diurnal variation. An asterisk indicates that one or more of the temperatures during this day were not known. The plots show contours of surface pressure at 1200 GMT. The daily displacement of each buoy is indicated by a vector originating from the buoy's current position at the beginning of each day. Buoy positions and displacements were not plotted when the data did not permit good displacement estimates. Usually the pressure measurements were still reliable at these times and were used to construct the pressure field.

Operations began in early 1979, and the program continued through 1990 under funding from various agencies. In 1991, the Arctic Ocean Buoy Programme was succeeded by the International Arctic Buoy Programme (IABP), but the basic objective remains - to establish and maintain a network of drifting buoys in the Arctic Ocean with which to provide data needed for real-time operations and meteorological and oceanographic research. The IABP is funded and managed by participants of the program, including operational and research agencies, meteorological and oceanographic institutes, and government and nongovernmental organizations. The participants represent eight countries and one international agency. This report is the twentieth in a series of data reports beginning in 1979; it covers the period from 1 January 2000 through 31 December 2000.

Download or read book Coordination and Data Management of the International Arctic Buoy Programme IABP written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-term goal of the International Arctic Buoy Programme is to maintain a research quality database of direct measurements and analyzed fields of surface air temperature (SAT), sea level pressure (SLP), ice motion and other geophysical quantities in the Arctic Basin using drifting buoys. The program objectives are (1) to coordinate resources to maintain a network of drifting buoys in the Arctic Basin that measure SLP, SAT and other geophysical quantities; (2) to maintain a research quality database of these observations; and (3) to study possible improvements in the analyzed geophysical fields. The data collected meet meteorological, climatological, and oceanographic requirements for both research and operational needs.
