New results on equatorial thermospheric winds and the midnight temperature maximum
(European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2008-03-26)
Optical observations of thermospheric winds and temperatures determined with high resolution measurements of Doppler shifts and Doppler widths of the OI 630-nm equatorial nightglow emission have been made with improved ...
Remote sensing lower thermosphere wind profiles using non-specular meteor echoes
(American Geophysical Union, 2009-05-12)
This article describes a new method of measuring wind velocity profiles between 93 km and 110 km altitude by tracking non‐specular meteor echoes as neutral winds transport the plasma trails. This requires a large VHF radar ...
Simultaneous measurements of thermospheric winds and ion drifts at Jicamarca and Arequipa, Peru
(Instituto Geofísico del Perú, 2010)
Ponencia presentada en el 2010 CEDAR Workshop, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO, 20-25 June 2010.
Using non-spectacular radar meteor echoes to monitor lower thermosphere wind profiles
(Instituto Geofísico del Perú, 2009)
We present a new method of measuring lower thermospheric wind velocity profiles by tracking non‐specular meteor echoes in time. This approach relies on having a radar following plasma irregularities as they are dragged by ...
Optical interferometric measurements of nighttime equatorial thermospheric winds at Arequipa, Peru
(American Geophysical Union, 1986-05-01)
We obtained nighttime measurements of equatorial thermospheric wind dynamics at Arequipa, Peru, with an automated field-widened Fabry-Perot interferometer between April 1983 and August 1983 and reduced data from 62 nights. ...
Low-Latitude Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Ionosphere
(Hindawi, 2012-05-20)
The objective of this proposed special issue was to provide a forum for papers related to the recent advances in the field of equatorial and low-latitude regions of mesosphere, thermosphere, and ionosphere from observational ...
Storm-time equatorial thermospheric dynamics and electrodynamics
(Utah State University, 2020)
It presents the first comprehensive study of the equatorial thermospheric dynamics and ionospheric electrodynamics over Peru following enhanced energy depositions into the high-latitude ionosphere during geomagnetic storms. ...
A whole atmosphere model simulation of the impact of a sudden stratospheric warming on thermosphere dynamics and electrodynamics
(American Geophysical Union, 2010-10-15)
A Whole Atmosphere Model (WAM) has been used to explore the possible physical connection between a sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) and the dynamics and electrodynamics of the lower thermosphere. WAM produces SSWs naturally ...
Mesospheric winds at equatorial latitudes: a review on observational aspects
(Elsevier, 1977-09)
Our observational knowledge of mesospheric winds at low equatorial latitudes is reviewed including both rocket and radio remote sensing techniques. Although equatorial latitudes are not as densely covered with rocket ...
Wind profiler installed in Antarctica
(American Geophysical Union, 1993-08)
A VHF (50 MHz) wind profiler was installed in Antarctica at the Peruvian Base Machu Picchu on King George Island from January 21 to 26. The wind profiler will provide a first look at atmospheric dynamics over the region. ...
