Evidence and Interpretation of a Spectral Gap in the Turbulent Atmospheric Temperature Spectra
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An analytical formulation of the turbulent potential energy spectrum in a stably stratified medium, valid in the inertia buoyancy subrange, is deduced in the framework of classical assumptions (no source, no sink, spectra ...
On the Measurement of the Turbulence Dissipation Rate from Rising Balloons
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper we analyze the feasibility of turbulence measurements below a rising balloon. From a typical case study we show the ability of the helisonde, hung below a large diameter balloon, to resolve the vertical profile ...
Validation of Winds Measured by MU Radar with GPS Radiosondes during the MUTSI Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: For many years, mesosphere?stratosphere?troposphere (MST) radar techniques have been used for studying the structure and dynamics of the lower and middle atmosphere. In particular, these instruments are unique tools for ...
