RISSimultaneous Observations of Thin Humidity Gradients in the Lower Troposphere with a Raman Lidar and the Very High-Frequency Middle- and Upper-Atmosphere Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Humidity is, among other things, a key parameter in the evolution of atmospheric dynamics and in the formation of clouds and precipitation through latent heat release. The continuous observation of its vertical distribution ...
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 ...
High-Resolution Observations with MU Radar of a KH Instability Triggered by an Inertia–Gravity Wave in the Upper Part of a Jet Stream
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Kelvin?Helmholtz (KH) instability is likely one of the most important sources of clear-air turbulence in the lower atmosphere. It produces billows, which mix and transport heat and materials vertically in the stably ...
Development of an Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Standard Gas Saving System and Its Application to a Measurement at a Site in the West Siberian Forest
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations of the atmospheric CO2 concentration from a 90-m tower in Berezorechka, western Siberia, that have taken place since October 2001 were used to characterize CO2 variations over a vast boreal forest area. A new ...
An Analysis Technique for Deriving Vector Winds and In-Beam Incidence Angles from Radar Interferometer Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We present a method for deriving horizontal velocities, vertical velocities, and in-beam incidence angles from radar interferometer data. All parameters are calculated from the slope and intercept of straight lines fitted ...
