[Active] — NASA Convective Processes Experiment – Cabo Verde (CPEX-CV) 2020-2024

The NASA CPEX-CV campaign included a field campaign during 2022 in Cabo Verde, using the NASA DC-8 platform to observe convection, aerosol and large-scale environmental forcing (e.g., African easterly waves, ITCZ, Saharan Air Layer, mid-level African easterly jet) over the tropical eastern Atlantic.
