  • The station is managed by the Observatoire de la Zone Critique de la Réunion (OZC-R) from Observatoire des Sciences de l'Univers de La Réunion (OSU-Réunion, Université de La Réunion). This is a forest station located at 1285m asl in the Reunion National Park. Rainwater is monthly collected (PALMEX rain collector) for δ18O and δ2H water isotopes analysis from 2016. Analyses are carried out at the Institut de Physique du Globe in Paris (PARI analytical platform) and within the IR-OZCAR network. The major ions rainfall composition is also studied. The station also measures several meteorological variables outside the canopy (precipitation, atmospheric pressure, temperature, relative humidity, global and photosynthetically active radiation) but also humidity linked to clouds and fog, as well as ground temperature.

  • The overall objective of the ESPOIRS project is to obtain a better understanding of the variability, statistical properties and formation mechanisms of intense tropical precipitation at regional and local scales. ESPOIRS is thus interested in the entire life cycle of precipitation at several space-time scales. * Through the analysis of the distribution of the large-scale humidity field which drives the formation of precipitation at the regional scale using a GNSS network. * Through the characterization of internal (dynamics, microphysics) and external (interactions with the relief) processes, which drive the formation and life cycle of extreme weather events at the local scale => transportable Polarized Doppler X-band precipitation radar.

  • Le radar BASTA est un radar nuage (95GHz) dédié à l’étude des nuages et du brouillard. Le radar mesure l’énergie rétrodiffusée par les hydrométéores, cette énergie peut donc être reliée à la quantité d’eau contenue dans le nuage (liquide et glace). Il fonctionne en routine quotidiennement sur le site de l’observatoire du Maïdo, sur l'Ile de La Réunion. Le radar BASTA Réunion a été calibré au LATMOS avant son installation à la Réunion. Ce jeu de données est au format niveau L0. Paramètre principal: Profil vertical de réflectivité radar, mesure du décalage Doppler. Contexte de la mesure: observation routine.

  • This dataset provides the processed CFH water vapor radiosoundings performed for 5 consecutive nights at the Maïdo Observatory (21.08°S, 55.38°E) on Réunion Island during the period 20-25 January 2022 following the eruption of the Hunga Tonga volcano on 15 January. Réunion Island is in the Southwest Indian Ocean and holds one of the very few atmospheric observatories in the subtropical Southern Hemisphere.

    Les ondes VLF émisent par des transmetteurs sur Terre, se propagent dans le guide d'onde formé par l'ionosphère et la Terre. En cas de changement de conductivité des limites de ce guide d'onde, les signaux reçus sont modifiés. C'est ce qu'il peut arriver par un forçage d'origine solaire (éruptions) ou liés à des zones orageuses (TLE). L'analyse de ces signaux en amplitude et phase permet de remonter à la perturbation de la densité électronique. Celle-ci induit notamment une augmentation de l'absorption HF. Outre les études sur la réponse de l'ionosphère à un forçcage (solaire ou TLE), le projet a une dimension sociétal en fournissant des alertes temps réel sur l'occurrence d'une éruption solaire. L'instrument est composé de deux "boucles" (plutôt des triangles) magnétiques orientées NS et EW. La base de l'antenne mesure 4.57m, la hauteur 2.80m, soit une surface totale de 5.22m2. Avec 11 tours de fil de cuivre on obtient une sensibilité de 3.57E-13 T/rt-Hz; Les "boucles" sont connectées à un pré-ampli situé au pied du mât. Ce pré-amp contient également le système de calibration. Un câble apportant l'électricité et ramenant les signaux part du pré-amp, courre dans les chemins de câble et arrive au "line Receiver", un boite électronique jaune située près du PC de contrôle. Cette électronique contient un ADC et reçoit le timing du GPS. L'ensemble des signaux est ensuite conduit vers le PC de contrôle qui effectue la démodulation des signaux MSK (méthode de transmission des données VLF) et produit les données NarrowBand et BroadBand. L'instrument fonctionne en continue 24/365. Le PC redémarre seul en cas de coupure d'électricité. Pour vérifier que l'instrument est bien en fonctionnement, il suffit de regarder la date et l'heure du spectrogramme affiché (rafraichissement toutes les minutes).

    The dataset of the first observatory from the French network of critical zone observatories (OZCAR) located in an insular tropical and volcanic context, integrating a “Tropical Montane Cloud Forest”: The ERORUN-STAFOR observatory. This collaborative observatory is located in the northern part of La Réunion island (Indian Ocean) within the watershed of Rivière des Pluies (45.0 km²) which hosts the TMCF of Plaines des Fougères, one of the best preserved natural habitats in La Réunion Island. Since 2015, the ERORUN-STAFOR monitoring in collaboration with local partners collected a multidisciplinary dataset with a constant improvement of the instrumentation over time. At the watershed scale and in its vicinity, the ERORUN-STAFOR observatory includes 10 measurement stations covering the upstream, midstream and downstream part of the watershed. The stations record a total of 48 different variables through continuous (sensors) or periodic (sampling) monitoring. The dataset consists of continuous time series variables related to (i) meteorology, including precipitation, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, net radiation, atmospheric pressure, cloud water flux, irradiance, leaf wetness and soil temperature (ii) hydrology, including water level and temperature, discharge and electrical conductivity (EC) of stream, (iii) hydrogeology, including groundwater level, water temperature and EC in two piezometers and one groundwater gallery completed by soil moisture measurements under the canopy. The dataset is completed by periodic time series variables related to (iv) hydrogeochemistry, including field parameters and water analysis results. The periodic sampling survey provides chemical and isotopic compositions of rainfall, groundwater, and stream water at different locations of this watershed. The ERORUN-STAFOR monitoring dataset extends from 2014 to 2022 with an acquisition frequency from 10 min to hourly for the sensor variables and from weekly to monthly frequency for the sampling. Despite the frequent maintenance of the monitoring sites, several data gaps exist due to the remote location of some sites and instrument destruction by cyclones. This observatory is a unique research site in an insular volcanic tropical environment offering three windows of observation for the study of critical zone processes through upstream-midstream-downstream measurements sites. This high-resolution dataset is valuable to assess the response of volcanic tropical watersheds and aquifers at both event and long-term scales (i.e. global change). It will also allow various progress in understanding the significant role of the TMCFs in the recharge processes, the hydrogeological conceptual model of volcanic islands, the watershed hydrosedimentary responses to extreme climatic events and their respective evolution under changing climatic conditions.

  • This dataset encompasses model outputs generated by the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) regional climate model. A high-resolution (~1km) downscaling simulation was performed over two tropical islands, Reunion and Mauritius, situated in the South-West Indian Ocean (SWIO), with initial and boundary conditions provided by the ERA5 reanalysis with a global resolution of 0.25° × 0.25°. The simulation used three nested domains sequentially configured with spatial resolutions of 9, 3, and 1km, respectively, with a downscaling ratio of 3. The physical configurations of this simulation were determined through previous modeling studies and sensitivity tests. The published simulation data currently covers a period of 10 years, starting from 1991 (with the possibility to be extended to 30 years). Over 60 output variables were selected for publication with open access, including those related to the intermittent energy resources (e.g., surface solar radiation and its direct/diffuse components, wind speed/direction at multiple vertical levels, and precipitation, of interest for the run-off-river hydropower), as well as the widely used climatic/meteorological variables (e.g., temperature, pressure, humidity, etc.) at a temporal resolution varying from a day up to 30 minutes. All the data are available through an open-access data server, where an intelligent algorithm is applied to simplify the download process for data users. For the first time, a long-term, high-resolution climate/meteorological dataset covering Reunion and Mauritius has been simulated and published as open-access data, yielding substantial benefits to studies on climate modeling, weather forecasting, and even those related to climate change in the SWIO region. In particular, this dataset will enable a better understanding of the temporal and spatial characteristics of intermittent climate-related energy resources, consequently facilitating their implementation towards a green and low-carbon future.
