Purpose
    To expedite progress of improving our understanding
    and prediction skill of local multi-scale variability of the                        State-of-the-art numerical models suffer
                                                                       Observation
    MC weather-climate systems and its global impact.                                   from systematic errors of rainfall estimation
Participants

5) Wave-glider     July 10 - Aug 31,   WG is equipped with Sfc met, GPS-WV, and ADCP.

Remarks:
1) Radiosonde observation is performed by Koror Weather Service based on contract
   between NOAA and JAMSTEC
2) Wave-glider will be released from Palau and may change their position to capture 100-
   km scale SST gradient. One WG will shift to 137E line and continue observation after
   our IOP as part of TPOS.
