  1. 1. On the Ionospheric Influence on GNSS Radio Occultation Signals : Modelling and Assessment

    Författare :Vinícius Ludwig Barbosa; Mats Pettersson; Viet Thuy Vu; Anthony James Mannucci; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Remote Sensing; Radio Occultation; Ionosphere; Scintillation; Wave Optics Propagator; Spectral Analysis; Plasma Bubble; Systemteknik; Systems Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Radio Occultation (RO) is a well-established remote sensing technique that uses Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals to sound the Earth’s atmosphere. GNSS-RO measurements provide high-resolution, vertical profiles of physical parameters from the lower atmosphere (troposphere and stratosphere), e.g. LÄS MER

  2. 2. GNSS Radio Occultation Inversion Methods and Reflection Observations in the Lower Troposphere

    Sammanfattning : GNSS Radio Occultation (GNSS-RO) is an opportunistic Earth sensing technique where GNSS signals passing through the atmosphere are received in low Earth orbit and processed to extract meteorological parameters. As signals are received along an orbit, the measured Doppler shift is transformed to a bending angle profile (commonly referred to as bending angle retrieval), which, in turn, is inverted to a refractivity profile.

  3. 3. Effects of Small-Scale Ionospheric Irregularities on GNSS Radio Occultation Signals : Evaluations Using Multiple Phase Screen Simulator

    Författare :Vinícius Ludwig Barbosa; Mats Pettersson; Viet Thuy Vu; Stig Syndergaard; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; GNSS Radio Occultation GNSS-RO ; Ionosphere; Scintillation;

    Sammanfattning : Radio Occultation (RO) is a remote sensing technique which uses Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals tracked by a Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite to sound the earth's atmosphere both in low (troposphere, stratosphere) and high (ionosphere) altitudes. GNSS-RO provides global coverage and SI traceable measurements of atmospheric data with high-vertical resolution. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Enhancing Tropospheric Humidity Data Records from Satellite Microwave and Radiosonde Sensors

    Författare :Isaac Moradi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CDR; climate; microwave; radiosonde; water vapor; remote sensing; antenna; homogenization; humidity; meteorology; troposphere; radio-frequency;

    Sammanfattning : Water vapor is the most dominant greenhouse gas and plays a critical role in the climate by regulating the Earth's radiation budget and hydrological cycle. A comprehensive dataset is required to describe the temporal and spatial distribution of water vapor, evaluate the performance of climate and weather prediction models in terms of simulating tropospheric humidity, and understand the role of water vapor and its feedback in the climate system.
