CONCLUSIONS
OBSERVING SYSTEM :
Significative efforts will be made in order to keep the operatiotional status of all the Argentine Antarctic Meteorological
Stations.
During 2006 it is expected to put in operation AMC MBI HRPT
station (NMS – CONAE)
The NMS offered logistical support to increase the upper air
observations in MBI as a contribution to the IPY, in accordance
to its possibilities.
CONCLUSIONS
DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM :
A double quality control is performed (at the stations and at
the ERMC Buenos Aires), a high presence of data is observed.
The availability of data at the AMC MBI is optimized for
forecasting purposses.
CONCLUSIONS
TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM :
Alternate means of transmission between AMC MBI-RTH
BUE are under review.
Regular monitoring of the RTH Buenos Aires incoming data.
All the observational data and products are introduced on the
GTS and NMS web
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
