Scientific Objectives and Required Facilities
Socorro Medina, Robert Houze, and Stacy BrodzikTIMREX Planning Meeting, Tainan, Taiwan, 9 November 2007
• Scientific Objectives– Investigate the vertical structure of precipitation over
Taiwan’s terrain– Investigate the structure of the terrain-modified airflow
• Required Facilities: S-Pol and upper-air soundings
• Desk space for two people in the Operation Center (OPS) or for one person at the OPS and one person at the S-Pol site (depending on how much data can be transmitted from S-Pol to OPS)
