The Campaign
The International Collaborative Experiment for PyeongChang Olympic and Paralympics (ICE-POP) was led by the Korean Meteorological Association (KMA) with assistance from NASA. ICE-POP carried out one deployment from November 2017 to March 2018. Its main purpose was to study frozen and mixed-phase precipitation over complex terrain in South Korea and to validate snowfall estimates for the Global Precipitation Mission (GPM) satellite. The main instruments used for data collection included ground-based sensors like the Dual Frequency Dual Polarimetric Doppler Radar (D3R), Micro Rain Radars (MRR), along with various rain gauges and imaging disdrometer networks. ICE-POP also provided forecasting and nowcasting support during the 2018 Winter Olympic Games.
