Abstract
The activities of CIRA are described with regard to satellite support of the field phase of the Oklahoma-Kansas PRE-STORM experiment, and to the ongoing research projects which make use of PRE-STORM data sets. Routine GOES imagery and VAS products were displayed on a personal computer (PC) workstation located in the PRE-STORM operations support facility. Half-hourly visible and infrared imagery, two-hourly water vapor imagery, and a number of derived VAS sounding products were available in real-time. The impact of the PC workstation on PRESTORM operations is discussed. The image display and analysis products, and VAS data products for use on the PC workstation are described in detail. Finally, PC data archival procedures and preliminary plans for future research are presented.
