CINDE: Convective Initiation Downburst Experiment
The Convection Initiation and Downburst Experiment (CINDE) was conducted in the Denver, Colorado area from 22 June to 7 August 1987 to study processes leading to the formation of deep convection and the physics of downbursts. A total of 6 Doppler...

ABLE-2B: Amazon Boundary Layer Experiment - 2B
Four PAMII stations were located near Manaus, Brazil during April through May, 1987, in support of NASA's ABLE-IIB experiment. The purpose of the ABLE experiment was the study of convective transport of trace gases (surface, and cloud mass transports)...

EMEX: Equatorial Mesoscale EXperiment
The Equatorial Mesoscale Experiment (EMEX) was designed to test one main hypothesis, namely that the net diabatic heating associated with the near equatorial convective cloud systems is strongest in the upper troposphere. EMEX explored the vertical air...
