El Niño Rapid Response (ENRR) Field Campaign: Surface Fluxes from NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown, 2016-02 to 2016-03 (NCEI Accession 0167875)
This dataset contains bulk surface-flux data from NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown, calculated by the COARE Flux Algorithm from surface meteorology and ship data collected 16 February to 16 March 2016. The surface meteorology and ship data were collected while the ship sailed from Honolulu, Hawaii to the Tropical Atmosphere Ocean (TAO) buoys along 140°W and 125°W and then to San Diego, California. The averaging period of the data is 1 hour.
During January through March 2016, scientists led by the NOAA/Earth System Research Laboratory's Physical Sciences Division conducted NOAA's El Niño Rapid Response (ENRR) Field Campaign. Its goal was to document the ongoing El Niño episode in great detail, and in ways that could help researchers better understand the ways in which this El Niño affected weather in the United States and the impact of various high-resolution observations on weather forecasts. Intensive observations were collected over the central and eastern Pacific ocean from land, ocean, and airborne platforms during the very strong 2015-2016 El Niño.
