CALJET  

Definition

  • The California Land-Falling Jets Experiment (CALJET) experiment was a study initiated by the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in early 1998. The purpose of CALJET was to observe pre-frontal Low Level jet streams contained within extratropical cyclones. This data will then be used to improve cyclone forcasts and provide more accurate emergency warnings. Additional CALJET information is available at the official Home Page.
