  1. Operation Plan and Current Status of CINDY2011 CINDY2011 : Cooperative Indian Ocean experiment on isv in the Year 2011 Kunio Yoneyama and Masaki Katsumata (JAMSTEC) • Basic Idea • Observation Network • Current Status Purpose : Study on Intraseasonal Variability in the Indian Ocean with focus on the initiation of convection in Madden-Julian Oscillation. DYNAMO Planning Workshop at NOAA/ESRL Boulder, CO, April 13-14, 2009

  2. Proposed Network for CINDY2011 Ship (Japan, India, USA, Australia, etc.) RAMA Surface mooring (existing/planned as of Dec. 2008) Land-based sounding site (routine/possibleenhanced sites) HARIMAU Seychelles

  3. Participation from India and Australia India * R/V Sagar Kanya (India) - Committed - 1) led by S. P. Kumar (NIO) Biogeochemical cruise (CTD at fixed site) 30 days in IO They will look for the possibility of Radiosonde observation. 2) led by VSN Murty (NIO) RAMA cruise (~30 days) Australia * R/V Southern Surveyor (Australia) - Will be Proposed - led by E. Schulz, M. Wheeler, H. Hendon (CAWCR) From Colombo, Sri Lanka to Christmas Island max 25 days on station Air-sea flux + Radiosonde sounding

  4. HARIMAU(Hydrometeorological ARray for ISV-Monsoon Automonitoring) http://www.jamstec.go.jp/iorgc/harimau/ Doppler radar + Auto Weather Station Wind Profiler + Auto Weather Station Wind Profiler Doppler radar

  5. Radiosonde Observation at Seychelles Seychelles National Weather Services will conduct radiosonde sounding twice daily during the campaign (4 months) with intensive 6-hourly launch for designated 1 month (i.e., late October - early December).

  6. AMIE: Observations of the Madden-Julian Oscillation for Cloud Modeling Studies
