2、teddy.holtnrlmry.navy.mil Award Number:N0001413WX20927 LONG-TERM GOALS The long-term goal of this project is to develop new and emerging analysis and forecast capabilities via improvements to environmental inputs to electro-magnetic(EM)tactical applications through Unmanned Aerial Systems(UAS)enhanc
3、ed high-resolution mesoscale data assimilation and modeling.These capabilities will be achieved through the formulation,testing,evaluation,and demonstration of an environmental data assimilation and prediction system designed to quantify the UAS observation parameters,characteristics(e.g.,vertical r
4、esolution,rate,etc.),measurement strategies and assimilation approaches that provide the greatest benefit for high-resolution(grid increment of 5-km or less)atmospheric tactical-scale environmental forecasts.The goal is to focus on EM tactical applications and metrics in evaluating the performance o
