RAQMS ARCPAC FORECAST RELATED WEB SITES
5-day, 2x2 degree RAQMS forecasts of chemistry and aerosols are available on this web site.

RAQMS forecasts are initialized with real-time assimilation of OMI cloud cleared total column ozone and MLS ozone profiles from the NASA Aura satellite and MODIS aerosol optical depth from the NASA Terra and Aqua satellites.

Daily Forecast Discussions in support of the NOAA ARCPAC component of the 2008 POLARCAT Arctic field mission are posted at the "RAQMS RDF Forecasts" link under RELATED WEB SITES.

5-day, 0.25x0.25 degree Reverse Domain Filling (RDF) forecasts within the field of operations of the NOAA P3 can be found at the "RAQMS & GFS RDF Forecasts" link under RELATED WEB SITES.

24hr, 1x1 degree Global RDF forecasts of Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) utilizing MODIS (Terra/Aqua) and GASP (GOES-E/GOES-W) AOD measurments can be found at the "RAQMS & GFS RDF Forecasts" Link under RELATED WEB SITES.

72-hour, 48km CIMSS Regional Assimilation System (CRAS) Arctic meteorological forecasts (provided by Bob Aune, NOAA/NESDIS/CIMSS) can be found at the "CRAS Arctic Forecasts" link under RELATED WEB SITES.

Archives of previous 2x2 degree forecasts can be found at the "RAQMS Previous Forecast Site" link under RELATED WEB SITES.
