TL;DR: In this article, the quality of the retrieved temperature-versus-pressure (or T(p)) profiles is described for the middle atmosphere for the publicly available Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) Version 1.07 (V1.07) data set.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visual and lidar observations of noctilucent clouds above Logan, Utah, at 41.7°N
TL;DR: In this article, a noctilucent cloud (NLC) was observed from a midlatitude site (Logan, Utah) on the evenings of 22 and 23 June 1999 mountain daylight time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Criteria for sprites and elves based on Schumann resonance observations
E. Huang,Earle Williams,Robert Boldi,Stan Heckman,W. A. Lyons,Michael J. Taylor,Thomas E. Nelson,C. Wong +7 more
TL;DR: Theoretical predictions for dielectric breakdown in the mesosphere were tested using ELF methods to evaluate vertical charge moments of positive ground flashes as discussed by the authors, and the measured charge moments were sufficient to account for electron runaway breakdown, and the long avalanche length in this mechanism also accounts for the exclusive association of sprites with ground flashes of positive polarity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two-dimensional spectral analysis of mesospheric airglow image data.
TL;DR: A technique to analyze short-period (<1 hour) gravity wave structure in all-sky images of the airglow emissions and presents possible evidence of a nonlinear wave-wave interaction in the upper atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
All‐sky measurements of short period waves imaged in the OI(557.7 nm), Na(589.2 nm) and near infrared OH and O2(0,1) nightglow emissions during the ALOHA‐93 Campaign
TL;DR: The ALOHA-93 campaign was conducted at Haleakala Crater, Maui, to obtain novel information on the properties and sources of short period gravity waves over an extended height range ∼80-100 km as discussed by the authors.
