DUNDEE  

Definition

  • Overview of the Experiment: DUNDEE was carried out in the vicinity of Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia during the wet seasons of November 1988 through February 1989, and November 1989 through February 1990. The general goal of DUNDEE was to investigate the dynamical and electrical properties of tropical mesoscale convective systems and isolated deep convective storms. The observational network consisted of two C-band Doppler radars (MIT and TOGA), a 50 MHz vertically pointing wind profiler, mesonet stations, upper air sounding stations, and cloud electricity instrumentation. DUNDEE was a collaborative effort between Colorado State University (S.A. Rutledge), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (E. Williams), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre (T. Keenan).
