Title: ATOMIC SVP-S drifters: Near-surface wind velocity, surface atmospheric pressure, and near-surface ocean parameters (temperature, salinity) estimated from in-situ instruments aboard 9 surface ocean drifters in the North Atlantic Ocean near South America: Atlantic Tradewind Ocean-Atmosphere Mesoscale Interaction Campaign 2020-01-23 to 2020-04-29 (NCEI Accession 0225194)
Abstract: The Atlantic Tradewind Ocean-Atmosphere Mesoscale Interaction Campaign (ATOMIC) was a field campaign held January-February 2020 in the tropical North Atlantic east of Barbados. The campaign, the U.S. complement to the European field campaign called EUREC4A, was aimed at better understanding cloud and air-sea interaction processes. ATOMIC included measurements from a NOAA WP-3D Orion "Hurricane Hunter" aircraft, NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown, and unpiloted vehicles launched from Barbados and from NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown. This dataset consists of surface drifter data in netCDF files.
