The German Front Experiment 1987

Abstract
The German Front Experiment, 1987 (GFE87) is a field experiment using aircraft, radar, surface, and upper-air observations to determine the influence of the European Alps on cold fronts. Measurements are concentrated in the Rhine Valley and in the Alpine foreland south of Munich. The observation period will be between October and December 1987, concurrently with the British and French joint field effort Mesoscale Frontal Dynamics Project (MFDP) and Fronts '87. The back-ground and the setup of GFE are described.
