Monday, October 7, 2024Animation of daily wind speed measurements from the Compact Ocean Wind Vector Radiometer (COWVR) instrument during its first year of operation. COWVR was developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and is installed on the International Space Station, where it has been collecting measurements since January 2022. COWVR aims to demonstrate new low-cost microwave sensor technologies for weather applications. This animation uses the first public release of the data which includes wind speed, wind direction, and moisture parameters and can be found on NASA’s Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) at https://doi.org/10.5067/COWVR-STPH8-EDR100. In the future these data may be retired and replaced with updated versions in which case please see https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/COWVR-TEMPEST for a list of all data sets including the most recent public versions, as well as information on the COWVR-TEMPEST project.
