CASES-97  

Definition

  • From 22 April to 22 May 1997 the first expedition to the CASES site was made by boundary layer and radar meteorology scientists from Universities and government laboratories. For further information on the CASES site, collaborators, and philosophy, please contact the CASES website, "http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/cases". The broad objectives of the expedition were two-fold: a) observe and model the effects of soil moisture on the fair weather boundary layer's diurnal cycle and b) Begin a determination of the relationship between S-band polarized radar signals, NEXRAD radar signals, and observed rainfall. The two objectives covered most of the weather events that occurred during the expedition. (en)
