The Mid-Latitude Mesosphere’S Response To Sudden Stratospheric Warmings As Determined From Rayleigh Lidar Temperatures, Leda Sox, Vincent B. Wickwar, Chad Fish, Joshua P. Herron Aug 2013

The Mid-Latitude Mesosphere’S Response To Sudden Stratospheric Warmings As Determined From Rayleigh Lidar Temperatures, Leda Sox, Vincent B. Wickwar, Chad Fish, Joshua P. Herron

Presentations

The original Rayleigh-scatter lidar that operated at the Atmospheric Lidar Observatory (ALO; 41.7°N, 111.8°W) in the Center for Atmospheric and Space Sciences (CASS) on the campus of Utah State University (USU), collected temperature data for 11 years, from 1993 through 2004. The temperatures derived from these data extended over the mesosphere, from 45 to 90 km. Recently, they were combined with other observations to examine the mid-latitude responses to Sudden Stratospheric Warmings (SSWs) in the polar regions. (The other observational instruments being an ionosonde, a meteor wind radar, a Na lidar, and a satellite.) Extensive Rayleigh lidar observations were made …


Multi-Year Observations Of Mid-Latitude Middle Atmospheric Winds, Waves, And Temperature Associated With Ssw Events Over Northern Utah, Chad Fish, Vincent B. Wickwar, B. Thurairajah, Jan J. Sojka, F. T. Berkey, S. Bailey, Titus Yuan, Michael J. Taylor, N. Mitchell, W. Hocking Aug 2013

We investigate the behavior of 14 years of wind, wave, and temperature observations in the middle atmosphere over northeastern Utah, USA during periods of sudden stratospheric warming events. This systematic review of the impacts of sudden stratospheric warming events on the middle atmosphere at a northern mid-latitude site is conducted using ground based measurements from imaging Doppler interferometry and meteor wind radar and Na and Raleigh lidar and space based measurements made by the Sounding of the Atmosphere Using Broadband Emission Radiometry sensor onboard the NASA sponsored Thermosphere Ionosphere mesosphere Energetics Dynamics Mission.
