The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: |
Lower-atmospheric meteorological and surface properties from the CU-RAAVEN unmanned aircraft system (UAS) over the Tropical Atlantic Ocean by University of Colorado Boulder / Physical Sciences Laboratory Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences during the Atlantic Tradewind Ocean-Atmosphere Mesoscale Interaction Campaign (ATOMIC), near Barbados, 2020-01-24 to 2020-02-16 (NCEI Accession 0225373) |
| Abstract: |
The Atlantic Tradewind OceanAtmosphere 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, the research ship Ronald H. Brown, and unpiloted vehicles launched from Barbados and from the Ronald H. Brown. This dataset contains unmanned aircraft meteorological and ocean surface data in netcdf files. |
