  2. Field Program and Modeling Improving understanding, model simulations, and prediction of the Southeast Pacific Climate System Regional pollution Mesoscale ocean eddies Stratocumulus clouds

  3. VOCALS Regional Experiment (REx) Field Program to address VOCALS science questions Chieflysponsored by NSF and NOAA, with contributions from ONR, DoE, and international agencies When: Oct-Nov 2008 Scientific Program Overview NSF Proposal Robert Wood, VOCALS-REx PI, University of Washington Christopher Bretherton, GEWEX/GCSS Representative, University of Washington Barry Huebert, SOLAS Representative, University of Hawaii C. Roberto Mechoso, VOCALS Science Working Group Chair, UCLA Robert Weller, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution

  4. VOCALS Regional Experiment (REx) • VOCALS-Rex will collect datasets required to address a set of issues that are organized into two broad themes: • Aerosol-cloud-drizzle interactions in the marine boundary layer (MBL) and the physicochemical and spatiotemporal properties of aerosols • Chemical and physical couplings between the upper ocean, the land, and the atmosphere.

  5. Oct-Nov 2008 Aircraft: NSF C-130 CIRPAS Twin Otter DoE G-1 UK BAe-146 UK Dornier 228 Ships: NOAA Ronald H Brown Peru - Jose Olaya Land sites VOCALS-REx Platforms and Sampling
