Definition

  • PIRATA (Pilot Research Moored Array in the Tropical Atlantic) is a project designed by a group of scientists involved in CLIVAR, and is implemented by the group through multi-national cooperation. The purpose of PIRATA is to study ocean-atmosphere interactions in the tropical Atlantic that are relevant to regional climate variability on seasonal, interannual and longer time scales. Contributions are provided by France (with the participation of IRD in collaboration with Meteo-France, CNRS, Universities and IFREMER), by Brazil (INPE and DHN) and by the USA (NOAA/PMEL, NASA and Universities).
