Testing climate models using GPS radio occultation: A sensitivity analysis
[1] We survey the IPCC AR4 models’ responses to SRES A1B forcing in order to evaluate a prediction of climate change common to all models and testable using GPS radio occultation data over the coming decades. Of the IPCC AR4 models that submitted runs of the SRES A1B forcing scenario, we select twelve because of the timeliness of their submission. Trends in the global average surface air temper...
متن کاملTesting Climate Models Using Infrared Spectra and GNSS Radio Occultation
The Climate Absolute Radiance and Refractivity Observatory will be a climate benchmarking mission intended to include instruments for measuring Earth’s atmospheric refractivity by GNSS radio occultation (RO), high spectral resolution thermal infrared spectra emitted from the Earth, and the spectrally resolved reflected shortwave spectrum. Climate benchmarking is necessary to establish a record ...
متن کاملAtmosphere sounding using GPS radio occultation
Introduction On July 17, 1995 the U.S. Air Force announced “ .. that today the Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite constellation has met all requirements for Full Operational Capability”. Apart from precise positioning GPS signals also can be used to derive characteristic properties of the propagation medium (neutral atmosphere and ionosphere). Onboard the Low-Earth-Orbiting MICROLAB-1 sa...

متن کاملSimulation studies of GPS radio occultation measurements
The atmospheric propagation of GPS signals under multipath conditions and their detection are simulated. Using the multiple phase screen method C/A-code modulated L1 signals are propagated through a spherically symmetric refractivity field derived from a high-resolution radio sonde observation. The propagated signals are tracked by GPS receivers implemented in software and converted to refracti...
