Richard Blakeslee, NASA/MSFC with a host of partners: NASA, NOAA, NMT, UAH, UF, UMD, GATech July 2011 Southern Thunder (ST11) Workshop Norman, OK

 Providers (Partners/Collaborators)  NASA, UAHuntsville, New Mexico Tech, Georgia Tech  LMA Operations and Maintenance  John Hall, Jeff Bailey, Terryn Fredrickson  NMT Consultants (P. Krehbiel, B. Rison, H. Edens, G. Aulich)  Users (Scientific/Operational/Informational)  NASA, NWS WFOs, EMAs, NOAA, Science Research Community, Public

 November 2001: First data collected.  May 2003: Started ingesting LMA data into AWIPS, and first case used to warn (May 6).  August 2003: First case (August 27) used not to issue a warning.  April 2008: Expanded network to 11 stations.  May 2009: Atlanta stations added. No significant changes since Operations remain stable but …

1 st Generation Stations  LMA Sensor Sites  VHS ground plane antenna  Sensor electronics / site computer (famous “green” box)  Communications (mostly 2.4 GHz wireless network link)  Relay Sites and Central Station  PC router (up to 4 network links)  Communications (multiple antennas require great care in channel selection)  NMT processing software now used Plan to migrate to cell phone modems, DLS, or direct internet to improve network communications & robustness (phase in new station hardware as needed)

 Deployed in Summer 2006 using the 2 nd generation “Portable LMA.”  This hardware both simplified and accelerated the deployment process.  Partners at universities, community colleges, government provide space and network connectivity.  In exchange, they receive access to data and educational opportunities for students.  We receive robust, real time network operations that can be managed remotely. Like NALMA, no significant changes since Operations are stable but… the Alabama Tornado outbreak showed that we need back up for data processing. DCLMA Site Map Portable LMA

 Data supplied to several WFOs for nowcasting and warning.  Supports satellite validation (TRMM/LIS) and a variety of weather research activities.  Important proxy data source for GOES-R pre- mission activities (AWG, risk reduction, proving ground, validation).  Much interest in Lightning Jump (breakout session topic)  Interest in multi-sensor products  Supports lightning forecast activities (WRF model)  Provide information to public via public Web access. (North Alabama, DC and KSC data available) A number of talks, especially in Session 3, related to these activities and applications.

 This is a 7 research network deployed in May at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing.  Sponsored by DARPA, its operation is via a collaboration by UAHuntsville, Univ. of FL, NASA and New Mexico Tech.  Facts:  Short Baseline (~18km diameter)  Portable LMA hardware  First data June 6, 2011  At this point, not real time  Optimized for close-in (i.e., rocket-triggered) events

Range Rings: 3, 5, 7 km Site 1 Site 2 Site 3 Site 4 Site 5 Site 6 Site 7

XLMA analysis by Bill Rison.  Plot shows one problem and one “feature” due to the small array diameter.  Problem: some sources in storm to north mislocated closer to network.  traced to northern-most site (goes away if this site removed from analysis).  need to verify position of GPS and VHF antenna  “Feature”: high-altitude sources strongly tilted due to elongated error ellipse.  error in elevation angle being proportional to r/D  error in radial distance is proportional to (r/D)^2

Thank You!
