• Atmospheric tomography using the Nordic Meteor Radar Cluster and Chilean Observation Network de Meteor Radars: Network details and 3D-Var retrieval 

      Stober, Gunter; Kozlovsky, A.; Liu, Alan; Qiao, Zishun; Tsutsumi, Masaki; Hall, Chris; Nozawa, Satonori; Lester, Mark; Belova, Evgenia; Kero, Johan; Espy, Patrick Joseph; Hibbins, Robert E.; Mitchell, N. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Ground-based remote sensing of atmospheric parameters is often limited to single station observations by vertical profiles at a certain geographic location. This is a limiting factor for investigating gravity wave dynamics ...
    • Estimating and Reporting Uncertainties in Remotely Sensed Atmospheric Composition and Temperature 

      von Clarmann, Thomas; Degenstein, Doug A.; Livsey, Nathaniel J; Bender, Stefan; Braverman, Amy; Butz, André; Compernolle, Steven; Damadeo, Robert; Dueck, Seth; Eriksson, Patrick; Funke, Bernd; Johnson, Margaret C; Kasai, Yasuko; Keppens, Arno; Kleinert, Anne; Kramarova, Natalya; Laeng, Alexandra; Payne, Vivienne H; Rozanov, Alexei; Sato, Tomohiro O; Schneider, Matthias; Sheese, Patrick; Sofieva, Viktoria; Stiller, Gabriele P; von Savigny, Christian H.P.; Zawada, Daniel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Remote sensing of atmospheric state variables typically relies on the inverse solution of the radiative transfer equation. An adequately characterized retrieval provides information on the uncertainties of the estimated ...
    • Optimizing hydroxyl airglow retrievals from long-slit astronomical spectroscopic observations 

      Franzen, Christoph; Hibbins, Robert; Espy, Patrick Joseph; Djupvik, Anlaug Amanda (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Astronomical spectroscopic observations from ground-based telescopes contain background emission lines from the terrestrial atmosphere's airglow. In the near infrared, this background is composed mainly of emission from ...
    • The SPARC water vapour assessment II: Comparison of annual, semi-annual and quasi-biennial variations in stratospheric and lower mesospheric water vapour observed from satellites 

      Lossow, Stefan; Khosrawi, Farahnaz; Nedoluha, Gerald E; Azam, Faiza; Bramstedt, Klaus; Burrows, John P.; Dinelli, Bianca M; Eriksson, Patrick; Espy, Patrick Joseph; Garcia-Comas, Maya; Gille, John C; Kiefer, Michael; Noel, Stefan; Raspollini, Piera; Read, William G.; Rosenlof, Karen H; Rozanov, Aleksej; Sioris, Christopher E; Stiller, Gabriele P; Walker, Kaley A.; Weigel, Katja (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      In the framework of the second SPARC (Stratosphere-troposphere Processes And their Role in Climate) water vapour assessment (WAVAS-II), the amplitudes and phases of the annual, semi-annual and quasi-biennial variation in ...
    • Validation of middle-atmospheric campaign-based water vapour measured by the ground-based microwave radiometer MIAWARA-C 

      Tschanz, B; Straub, Corinne; Scheiben, D; Walker, KA; Stiller, GP; Kämpfer, N (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Abstract. Middle atmospheric water vapour can be used as a tracer for dynamical processes. It is mainly measured by satellite instruments and ground-based microwave radiometers. Ground-based instruments capable of measuring ...
