Measurements obtained during field projects are critical to understanding past, present, and future weather and climates. The data obtained from these projects often offers a first glance at previously unstudied or misunderstood phenomena. This session will focus on results obtained from recent field projects using various observation platforms and techniques. Topics include preliminary findings, analysis and review of field project methodologies, and subsequent advancements following project completion.
