General Formulation of Optical Paths for Large Zenith Angles in the Earth's Curved Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Formulas that can be used to determine the optical path between two points along an atmospheric ray path are derived for the case when the local zenith angle of the ray path is larger than 70°. For angles less than 70°, ...
A Study on the Planetary Wave Transport of Ozone during the Late February 1979 Stratospheric Warming Using the SAGE Ozone Observation and Meteorological Information
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Ozone data from the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment (SAGE) have been used in conjunction with meteorological information to study the ozone transport near 55°N due to planetary waves during the late February 1979 ...
A Study on Radiative Damping of Planetary Waves Utilizing Stratospheric Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite ozone observations made by the Stratospheric Aerossol and Gas Experiment (SAGE) and corresponding meteorological temperature data are used to study the radiative damping processes associated with planetary waves ...
A Model Study of the Temporal and Spatial Variations of the Zonally-Averaged Ozone Heating Rate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The temporal and spatial variations of the zonally-averaged ozone beating rate in the middle atmosphere on a global scale are investigated in detail based on a model study. This study shows that the mean ozone heating rate ...
