NZ ITASE - Climate Variability Along the Victoria Land Coast
Summary
International polar ice coring programmes (e.g. GISP and Vostok) have provided
powerful new insights into Earth's climate back 400,000 years, from the diverse
inventory of atmospheric information stored both within the ice and trapped air
bubbles. To understand and predict the local response to anthropogenically
induced global warming seen in these "global" ice ...

Skew-T Diagrams and Hodographs
The following comprise our available Skew-T log-P diagrams and Hodographs of the weather balloons launched from around Antarctica updated every 3 hours showing data the most recent of two launch times at 0 and 12 UTC. Some stations will not have data available or will be available 6 or 9 hours after observation time. The Skew-T chart displays a profile of temperature, dewpoint and winds from the manditory levels in the balloon flight. The Hodograph displays the winds as a radial chart from the manditory levels in the balloon flight.

This page summarizes changes and known limitations associated with each release of ICESat/GLAS data. Changes in input data and algorithms result in a new release, set by the GLAS Software Development Team. Products generated with a new release may be processed forward in time or reprocessed from earlier data.
The Antarctic Glaciological Data Center (AGDC) at the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) archives and distributes Antarctic glaciological and cryospheric system data collected by the U.S. Antarctic Program.

FRAMEWORK FOR PRODUCING ECOLOGICAL 'NOWCASTS'
TIME: Tues., Dec. 11, 11 a.m. EST (8 a.m. PST) MS Exhibit Hall B
SESSION: IN21A-0073
The Terrestrial Observation and Prediction System is a data and modeling software system that seamlessly integrates data from satellite, aircraft and ground sensors, and weather/climate models with application models to quickly produce operational "nowcasts" and forecasts of ecological conditions. Presenters will discuss how automated data retrieval, pre-processing, integration and modeling steps enable the system to provide data on current and predicted ecosystem conditions.
