ICECHIP: In-situ Collaborative Experiment for the Collection of Hail In the Plains
Summary
The In-situ Collaborative Experiment for the Collection of Hail In the Plains (ICECHIP) Field Campaign will occur for approximately 6 weeks during the late spring and early summer of 2025. The objective of this campaign is to advance the nation’s capabilities to predict hailstorms and their impacts, provide critical ground-truth information for materials science, and improve radar detection and monitoring of hail. The first U.S. hail-focused field campaign in over 40 years, it will use modern instrumentation and numerical modeling capacity to provide a long-awaited advancement in hail science.
