PredIction and Research mooring Array in the Tropical Atlantic PIRATA Dr. Domingos Urbano National Institute for Space Research - INPE OceanSITES meeting – La Jolla, CA Nov/Dec 2011

PIRATA is a multinational program established to improve our knowledge and understanding of ocean-atmosphere variability in the tropical Atlantic. The tropical Atlantic strongly influences the regional climate and, consequently, the economies of the adjacent land masses. PIRATA is motivated by fundamental scientific issues but also by societal needs for improved prediction of climatic variability and its impacts on countries surrounding the basin. Along with TAO/TRITON in the Pacific and RAMA in the Indian Ocean, PIRATA is part of the Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array, as part of the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) and Global Climate Observing System (GCOS)

Relevance of monitoring Tropical Atlantic

PIRATA evolution: Sep 1997 – Launched as a PILOT program By early 1999 – The core array had 10 ATLAS buoys 2001 – ADCP mooring at 0°, 23°W 2005 – Soutwest Extension (INPE) 2006 – Northwest Extension (NOAA) 2006/2007 – Southeast Extension (S. Africa)
