NOAA/AOML/HRD<br />

We continue to address <strong>the</strong> goals set forth by NOAA’s Intensity Forecasting Experiment<br />

(IFEX). IFEX aims to collect observations throughout <strong>the</strong> tropical cyclone (TC) life cycle,<br />

develop and refine measurement technologies for real-time monitoring <strong>of</strong> TC structure and<br />

intensity, and improve understanding <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> physical processes important in TC intensity change.<br />

This season our focus will be on streng<strong>the</strong>ning <strong>the</strong> NOAA intra-agency partnership among HRD,<br />

AOC, EMC and NESDIS, as well as a new effort to enhance interactions between HRD and<br />

NHC. Plans for <strong>the</strong> 2011 field program, including how <strong>the</strong>se interactions will impact it, will be<br />

presented.<br />
