Observing System Simulation Experiments to Evaluated Targeted Observation of Supercells by UAS

Summary
Funded by an NSF National Robotics Initiative award led by Dr. Eric Frew of the Research and Engineering Center for Unmanned Vehicles at the University of Colorado Boulder, this research builds on the ESA work conducted within SSRG to evaluate the potential role of UAS for collecting observations in and ear supercells for assimilation into storm-scale numerical weather prediction models.
