“…However, other users may desire "final analyses" that are based on all of the real-time and delayed data from the experiment. Elsberry (1989b) describes the essential characteristics of the data-handling preparations, objective analysis, data-assimilation system, initialization technique and other related aspects for preparing the final analyses. The inner analysis domain will be between 5°N and 40°N, 105°E and 150°E.…”

“…Finally, Hypothesis III in Appendix 2 is related to numerical studies by Smith et al (1990) and to observational studies of asymmetries at Colorado State University by Gray (see description in Elsberry 1989a). Obviously, detailed aircraft observations of the tropical cyclone structure will be required.…”

Four separate (but coincident in time) field experiments to study tropical cyclones in the western North Pacific area will be carried out during August/September 1990 by the United States, the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific/World Meteorological Organization (ESCAP/WMO) Typhoon Committee, the USSR, and by Taiwanese scientists. The objective of the U.S. experiment is to improve basic understanding of tropical cyclone motion. The focus of the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee experiment is to improve operational track prediction. A multi-ship and aircraft expedition is planned by the USSR to understand the effects of the ocean inhomogeneities on tropical cyclones, and the response of the ocean to typhoon passage. Researchers in Taiwan will organize special observations of typhoons approaching Taiwan to understand the wind and precipitation distributions. The combined observations from these experiments should result in a comprehensive dataset for the study of western Pacific tropical cyclones.

“…A workshop (Elsberry 1989b) considered the data assimilation systems that presently exist for preparing the final analyses. A consensus was obtained on the essential characteristics for the data handling preparations, objective analysis, data assimilation system, initialization technique and other related aspects for preparing the final analyses.…”
