Session 8 Findings from Latest Field Projects I

Tuesday, 14 January 2025: 4:30 PM-6:00 PM
348 (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)
Host: 25th Symposium on Meteorological Observation and Instrumentation
CoChair:
Sreenath Paleri, University of Wisconsin - Madison, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, Madison, WI

Data gathered from measurements during field projects play a crucial role in comprehending historical, current, and future weather and climate patterns. The information derived from that data frequently provides an initial insight into phenomena that were previously unexplored or misinterpreted. This session will concentrate on the findings of recent field projects that employed diverse observation platforms and methodologies. The discussion will encompass initial results, examination and critique of field project strategies, and progress made after the conclusion of the project.
