 | | The experiment is initiated by the University of Hamburg (Institute of Meteorology and Institute of Oceanography) and by the Max Planck Institute of Meteorology (Hamburg) and will be conducted in cooperation with institutions from Norway (Det Norske Meteorolgiske Institut, Tromsoe Satellite Station, Andoya Rocket Range, Lufttransport Tromsoe), Ireland (Marine Institute, Galway) and Germany (DLR, Oberpfaffenhofen). |
 | | The field experiment LOFZY 2005 aims at the detection of atmospheric cyclones in the Lofotes area and their interaction with the Norwegian Current. |
 | | The air-dropped automatic buoys are integral part of LOFZY 2005 as they measure the atmospheric foring (pressure, wind, temperature) and the impact on the ocean (ocean drift current, temperature) directly. |
