The Campaign
The Convection and Moisture Experiment (CAMEX) studied tropical cyclones and convection to support validation of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and to improve forecasting and tracking of tropical cyclones. CAMEX had four deployments across the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and Atlantic coast of the United States during the boreal summer and fall of 1993-2001. Airborne and ground-based instruments were used to measure the storm structure and environment of tropical cyclones. CAMEX was funded by NASA through the Mission to Planet Earth.
