A major observational and research program is being undertaken in Darwin, Australia as part of the Tropical Ocean and Global Atmosphere (TOGA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM). Darwin is situated in northern Australia and experiences a monsoon environment typical of the maritime continent region, together with break and transition periods when continental systems are predominant. The Darwin initiative follows the recent Australian Monsoon Experiment (AMEX) and Equatorial Mesoscale Experiment (EMEX) and represents a continuing effort to gather data on the nature of convection in this strategic tropical location.
