SIPEX_II_Trajectories

All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).

    Description

    The current data set contains:
    Hysplit back-trajectories and IDL reader

    Trajectories were launched from the SIPEX II ship location every hour at 10m, 500m, 1000m, 1500m, 2000m, 2500m, 3000m, 3500m, 4000m. Three different meteorological reanalyses datasets (ECMWF, GDAS and NCEP were used to generate these 10 day air parcel back-trajectories.
