Investigation of vertical wavenumber and frequency spectra of gravity-wave-induced vertical wind and temperature perturbations
233 hours of high-precision vertical wind and temperature measurements in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) were used to study the spectra of gravity wave perturbations in the mesopause region. The temperature spectra are generally consistent with the theoretical predictions of gravity wave theory. The averaged slope of the frequency (f) spectra is –1.83±0.08, while the slope of the v...
متن کاملTemperature Trends in the Lower Atmosphere
A new publication by NOAA (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) claims to have removed the previously evident discrepancies between mean global temperature anomalies measured on the surface and those measured in the lower troposphere. It claims that a combination of attention to inaccuracies and the use of linear regression equations on selected climate sequences have removed the...
متن کاملRetrieval of Vertical Temperature Profiles in the Atmosphere
In this paper a new regularization technique is introduced and applied to the problem of retrieval of vertical temperature profiles in the atmosphere from remote sensing data. This is a key issue in Meteorology since it provides an important input for weather forecasting models, mainly in the Southern Hemisphere, where there are large areas uncovered by data collecting ground stations. The new ...
متن کاملThe Loss of the Martian Atmosphere
It is widely accepted that Mars had an atmosphere at least 4 Gyr ago. The processes that led to the loss of the Martian atmosphere are still debated. Solar-wind-induced sputtering, impact erosion, weathering, sequestration into the regolith and polar caps, and photodissociative reactions are the mechanisms believed to be responsible for removing the atmosphere. No one process has been shown to ...
متن کاملRadiative Transfer Modeling of the Martian Atmosphere
Introduction: Studies of the past and current climate and weather on Mars depend on accurate calculations of the radiative properties of the Martian atmosphere. Atmospheric and Environmental Research, Inc. (AER) is the source of the state-of-the-science radia-tive transfer codes for terrestrial applications [1] and these models are continuously updated and validated [2]. Recently, they have bee...
