GloPac
Global Hawk Pacific Mission Dryden, CA Summer 2009Proposed flights of the Global Hawk for the Global Hawk Pacific Mission(GloPac) are to be conducted in support of the Aura Validation Experiment(AVE). This mission will take place out of Dryden Flight Research Center and isexpected to encompass the entire offshore Pacific region with four to five 30hour flights.
GloPac - Science Objectives:1) Validation and scientific collaboration with NASA earth-monitoring satellitemissions, principally the Aura satellite2) Observations of stratospheric trace gases in the upper troposphere andlower stratosphere from the mid-latitudes into the tropics,3) Sampling of polar stratospheric air and the break-up fragments of the that air that move into the mid-latitudes,4) Measurements of dust, smoke, and pollution that cross the Pacific from Asiaand Siberia,5) Measurements of streamers of moist air from the central tropical Pacific thatmove onto the West Coast of the United States (atmospheric rivers).

GRIP Mission
Overview:GRIP will focus on how tropical storms form and develop into major hurricanes, NASA is launching the Genesis andRapid Intensification Processes Experiment (GRIP). The mission is scheduled for August thru September 2010,historically the busiest months for Atlantic hurricanes.
NASA will utilize a DC-8, and a Global Hawk Unmanned Airborne System (UAS) aircraft, as well as, mobile radars andradiosondes to examine the structure and evolution of convective systems. Over 150 personnel involved.
GRIP will collect valuable data on the hurricanes structure, dynamics, and motion that will assist in decreasing the sizeof coastal evacuation areas while increasing the warning time to those areas
Project Timeline: 2010Apr. - Jul. - Instrument modifications and
preparationJul. - Aug. - Instrument Integration in CA
& sites - Setup in FLMid Aug. - DC-8 transit to Florida
Aug. - Sept. - Science flightsEnd of Sept - DC-8 transit home to DFRC
