Obiettivo Description:Merlin is a versatile flying laboratory offering several scientific configurations: basic meteorological instrumentation, turbulent flux equipment, cloud-physical studies, in-situ chemistry instruments (NO-NOx-Noy, CO and Ozone). Access to the Merlin IV is offered through the EC-funded Human Potential Programme - Access to Research Infrastructure contract, under a joint aircraft project (with DLR, Germany; MRF, UK; and INSU, France) called CAATER (Co-ordinated Access to Aircraft for Transnational Environmental Research). About 10 hours on Merlin is foreseen per user group, for a total of 5 or 6 research user groups from EU Member or Associate States. The facility is offered with the configuration required, including infrastructural, logistical, technical and scientific support.Application:Through call for proposals, as advertised in various scientific literature, including 12-monthly through the Newsletter of the European Geophysical Society, and via the internet address below. Selection of proposals is carried out by the CAATER User Selection Panel, involving 7 external experts, to ensure an independent peer review. Selection will be on the basis of scientific merit, taking into account the interests of the Community.Project Manager:Cariolle Daniel, Centre National de la Recherche Météorologique, 42, Avenue Gustave Coriolis, Toulouse 31057, FranceTel: +33-5-61079371/69882442 (facilitator)Fax: +33-5-61079600/60844048 (facilitator)E-Mail: daniel.cariolle@meteo.fr Campo scientifico natural sciencescomputer and information sciencesinternetengineering and technologymechanical engineeringvehicle engineeringaerospace engineeringaircraft Programma(i) FP5-HUMAN POTENTIAL - Programme for research, technological development and demonstration on "Improving the human research potential and the socio-economic knowledge base" (1998-2002) Argomento(i) 1.4.1.-2. - Access to Research Infrastructures Invito a presentare proposte Data not available Meccanismo di finanziamento LFC - Access to Research Infrastructures Coordinatore METEO-FRANCE Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo 42,Avenue G.
