Development of Drone-Mounted Multiple Sensing System with Advanced Mobility for In Situ Atmospheric Measurement: A Case Study Focusing on PM2.5 Local Distribution
Hirokazu Madokoro,Hirokazu Madokoro,Osamu Kiguchi,Takeshi Nagayoshi,Takashi Chiba,Makoto Inoue,Shun Chiyonobu,Stephanie Nix,Hanwool Woo,Kazuhito Sato +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a drone with advanced mobility to develop a unified sensor and communication system as a new platform for in situ atmospheric measurements, where a small, lightweight, simple, and cost-effective multi-sensor system was developed for multiple measurements of atmospheric phenomena and related environmental information.

Measuring Regional Atmospheric CO2 Concentrations in the Lower Troposphere with a Non-Dispersive Infrared Analyzer Mounted on a UAV, Ogata Village, Akita, Japan
Takashi Chiba,Yumi Haga,Makoto Inoue,Osamu Kiguchi,Takeshi Nagayoshi,Hirokazu Madokoro,Isamu Morino +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a simple measuring system prototype that uses an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) analyzer to detect regional carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations and obtain vertical CO2 distributions was developed.

TL;DR: ERA-Interim as discussed by the authors is the latest global atmospheric reanalysis produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), which will extend back to the early part of the twentieth century.
Journal ArticleDOI
A possible response of the atmospheric Hadley circulation to equatorial anomalies of ocean temperature
TL;DR: Weakness and temporary elimination of the equatorial easterly winds over the eastern and central Pacific in late 1957 and early 1958 brought about a brief cessation of equatorial upwelling which in turn caused the occurrence of above-normal surface water temperatures in the tropical Pacific from the American coast westward to the dateline as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the distribution and variations of atmospheric CO2 from 1981 to 1992 were determined by measuring CO2 mixing ratios in samples collected weekly at a cooperative global air sampling network.

The Concentration and Isotopic Abundances of Carbon Dioxide in the Atmosphere
TL;DR: In this article, a systematic variation with season and latitude in the concentration and isotopic abundance of atmospheric carbon dioxide has been found in the northern hemisphere and a small but persistent increase in concentration in Antarctica.
