  1. 1. Studies of Atmospheric Water Vapor Using the Global Positioning System

    Författare :Ragne Emardson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; troposphere; microwave radiometry; climatology; radiosondes; atmospheric water vapor; Global Positioning System; time series analysis; VLBI; space geodesy; GPS; Very Long Baseline Interferometry; meteorology; radio wave propagation; Kalman filtering;

    Sammanfattning : Atmospheric water vapor is of fundamental interest in the Global Positioning System (GPS) and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) techniques. These techniques are based on the timing of radio waves propagating through the atmosphere. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Representation and diurnal variation of upper tropospheric humidity in observations and models

    Författare :Ajil Kottayil; Byung-Ju Sohn; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rymdteknik; Space Technology;

    Sammanfattning : The role of water vapour is manifold in its climate regulation of the Earth system. Most important of all despite its low concentration, is the role it plays in the upper troposphere. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Satellite and radiosonde measurements of atmospheric humidity

    Författare :Ajil Kottayil; Patrick Eriksson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rymdteknik; Space Technology;

    Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis is based on two papers which are related to the study ofatmospheric humidity. The first paper mainly focuses on a non linear method forretrieving atmospheric humidity from infrared sounder satellite measurements basedon fuzzy clustering which could potentially improve the retrieval accuracy.

  4. 4. Measuring and modelling variations in the distribution of atmospheric water vapour using GPS

    Författare :Tobias Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Global Positioning System GPS ; Microwave Radiometry; Water Vapour; Climate; Atmospheric Turbulence;

    Sammanfattning : Turbulence introduce variations in the refractive index of air, which in turn result in fluctuations in the phase and amplitude of radio signals propagating through the atmosphere. Most important are the variations due to fluctuations in the water vapour field. LÄS MER
