Hōʻike kēia palapala ʻāina, i hana ʻia me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā nānā ʻana o COWVR hou, i nā alapine microwave o ka Honua, e hāʻawi ana i ka ʻike e pili ana i ka ikaika o nā makani o ka ʻilikai, ka nui o ka wai i loko o nā ao, a me ka nui o ka mahu wai i ka lewa.
Ua hana kekahi mea kani liʻiliʻi hou ma luna o ke kahua mokulele honua i ka palapala ʻāina honua mua o ka makū a me nā makani kai.
Ma hope o ke kau ʻana ma ke kahua mokulele honua, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻelua mau mea hana liʻiliʻi i hoʻolālā ʻia a kūkulu ʻia e ka Jet Propulsion Laboratory a NASA ma Kaleponi Hema i Ianuali 7 e hoʻomaka ai e hōʻiliʻili i ka ʻikepili ma nā makani moana o ka Honua a me ka mahu wai lewa i hoʻohana ʻia no nā wānana o ke aniau a me ke kai. Pono ka ʻike koʻikoʻi. I loko o ʻelua lā, ua hōʻiliʻili ka Compact Ocean Wind Vector Radiometer (COWVR) a me ka Temporal Space Experiment in Storms and Tropical Systems (TEMPEST) i ka ʻikepili lawa e hoʻomaka ai e hana i ka palapala ʻāina.
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo COWVR lāua ʻo TEMPEST ma Dekemaba 21, 2021, ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o ka misionari hoʻolako kalepa 24 a SpaceX iā NASA. ʻO nā mea hana ʻelua he mau radiometer microwave e ana i nā loli i ka radiation microwave kūlohelohe o ka Honua. ʻO nā mea hana he ʻāpana o ka Polokalamu Hoʻāʻo Space Force Houston-8 (STP-H8) o ka US Space Force, kahi e manaʻo ai e hōʻike hiki iā lākou ke hōʻiliʻili i ka ʻikepili o ke ʻano like me nā mea hana nui e hana nei ma ka orbit.
Hōʻike kēia palapala ʻāina hou mai COWVR i nā microwave 34 GHz i hoʻopuka ʻia e ka Honua ma nā latitudes āpau i ʻike ʻia mai ke kahua ākea (mai 52 degere ʻākau a i 52 degere hema). Hāʻawi kēia alapine microwave kūikawā i nā mea wānana aniau me ka ʻike e pili ana i ka ikaika o nā makani ma ka ʻili o ke kai, ka nui o ka wai i loko o nā ao, a me ka nui o ka mahu wai i ka lewa.
Hōʻike nā kala ʻōmaʻomaʻo a me ke keʻokeʻo ma ka palapala ʻāina i nā pae kiʻekiʻe o ka mahu wai a me nā ao, ʻoiai ʻo ke kala polū ʻeleʻele o ke kai e hōʻike ana i ka ea maloʻo a me ka lani mālamalama. Hoʻopaʻa ke kiʻi i nā kūlana o ke aniau maʻamau e like me ka makū tropical a me ka ua (kaha ʻōmaʻomaʻo ma waenakonu o ka palapala ʻāina) a me nā ʻino mid-latitude ma luna o ke kai.
Pono nā radiometers i kahi antenna wili i hiki iā lākou ke nānā i nā wahi nui o ka ʻili o ka Honua ma mua o kahi laina haiki wale nō. Ma nā radiometers microwave ʻē aʻe a pau, ʻaʻole wale ka antenna, akā ʻo ka radiometer ponoʻī a me nā mea uila e pili ana e wili ana ma kahi o 30 mau manawa i kēlā me kēia minuke. Aia nā kumu ʻepekema a me nā ʻenekinia maikaʻi no kahi hoʻolālā me nā ʻāpana wili he nui, akā ʻo ka mālama ʻana i kahi mokulele me ka nui o ka nui o ka neʻe ʻana he mea paʻakikī. Eia kekahi, ua hōʻoia ʻia nā ʻano hana no ka hoʻoili ʻana i ka ikehu a me ka ʻikepili ma waena o nā ʻaoʻao wili a me nā ʻaoʻao paʻa o ka mea hana he hana nui a paʻakikī hoʻi e hana.
ʻO ka mea hana hoʻopihapiha a COWVR, ʻo TEMPEST, ka hopena o nā makahiki he ʻumi o ka hoʻopukapuka kālā ʻana o NASA i ka ʻenehana e hoʻolilo i nā mea uila lewa i ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi. I ka waena o nā makahiki 2010, ua hoʻomaka ka ʻenekinia JPL ʻo Sharmila Padmanabhan e noʻonoʻo e pili ana i nā pahuhopu ʻepekema e hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia ma ke kau ʻana i nā mea ʻike liʻiliʻi ma CubeSats, nā satelite liʻiliʻi loa i hoʻohana pinepine ʻia e hoʻāʻo i nā manaʻo hoʻolālā hou me ke kumu kūʻai haʻahaʻa.
Inā makemake ʻoe e ʻike e pili ana i nā kikowaena aniau liʻiliʻi, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokaʻaʻike mai iā mākou.
