Scientific responsible : Yann KERR (CESBIO)

The Intensive Observing Period of the Hapex-sahel (Hydrologic and Atmospheric Pilot Experiment in the Sahel) international experiment was held in Niger in 1992.

Objectives

Evaporation and water/energy balance studies in a dry tropical region ,in relation with the characteristics of the soils ,the vegetation cover and the atmosphere ,with:

  • The measurement of the water and energy fluxes.
  • The spatial integration of data.

Data

  • Ground measurement :water ,gaz and energy fluxes ,rainfall ,meteorology ,runoff ,soil moisture ,groundwater level ,vegetation measurements ,etc.
  • Airborne measurements : fluxes and remote sensing data.
  • satellites : SPOT, NOAA/AVHRR, Landsat TM, ERS-1, METEOSAT.
  • bibliographic data.

Distribution

  • Web Server and CD-ROM (restriced to the PI until 1997).
  • Data base developed by LERTS, IRD and CNES.
  • Distribution :MEDIAS-FRANCE
