Optimal Noise Filtering for the Ionospheric Correction of GPS Radio Occultation Signals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: GPS radio occultation remote sensing of the neutral atmosphere requires ionospheric correction of L1 and L2 signals. The ionosphere-corrected variables derived from radio occultation signals?such as the phase, Doppler, and ...
Four-Dimensional Variational Data Assimilation of Heterogeneous Mesoscale Observations for a Strong Convective Case
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 19 September 1996, a squall line stretching from Nebraska to Texas with intense embedded convection moved eastward across the Kansas?Oklahoma area, where special observations were taken as part of a Water Vapor Intensive ...
A GPS/MET Sounding through an Intense Upper-Level Front
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A Global Positioning System Meteorology (GPS/MET) proof-of-concept experiment became a reality on 3 April 1995. A small satellite carrying a modified GPS receiver was launched into earth orbit to demonstrate the feasibility ...
GPS Sounding of the Atmosphere from Low Earth Orbit: Preliminary Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper provides an overview of the methodology of and describes preliminary results from an experiment called GPS/MET (Global Positioning System/Meteorology), in which temperature soundings are obtained from a low ...
The COSMIC/FORMOSAT-3 Mission: Early Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The radio occultation (RO) technique, which makes use of radio signals transmitted by the global positioning system (GPS) satellites, has emerged as a powerful and relatively inexpensive approach for sounding the global ...
