Wisconsin AWS Network
• YOPP Endorsed Project• Yay! Thank you Polar Prediction
Office
• Offer of a stable observing network with no/few changes
• Only Evans Knoll likely to be removed due to safety issues
• Data will be provided as it has been
• *NEW* BUFR format distribution in late 2018
• Pending supplemental funding• Actual programming work• Cooperation from NOAA/NCO/TG

Madison College Field season Plans – New Installations 2018-2020
• Side by side testing of existing AWS and new PCWS systems:
1. South Pole (Skiway)2. Marilyn AWS 3. White Island AWS 4. Willie Field AWS
Communications method is not clearly definedData relay is not guaranteedPost-mortem use for YOPP-SH??

USAP Main
Stations
• Remain operational as historically• No change in observing strategy• Routine distribution of data
![Page 8: AWS Wisconsin and Antarctic Stations (USA)polarmet.osu.edu/YOPP-SH/Presentations_201807/1340_1350...AWS Wisconsin and Antarctic Stations (USA) Matthew Lazzara 1,2 and Art Cayette 3](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071513/613347c6dfd10f4dd73afc52/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Other USAP
Observing
• The USAP data will continue field observations
• METkits will be providing 24x7 AWS type 10 minute data at our LC-130 Field Camp locations
• On top of the standard limited METAR reporting the camp personnel do.
• The automated data as well as manual METARs will be placed on LDM for distribution.
• Note: Potential for Upper air at WAIS or BYRD, and possibly at the main camp near Thwaites?
• Two Vaisala MW32 systems that need upgrades that USAP could borrowed from US Navy METOC
• Funding/direction required for this.• Unclear for YOPP-SH
