  1. 6. Meteoric Aerosols in the Middle Atmosphere

    Författare :Linda Megner; Jörg Gumbel; Martin Ridal; Gary E. Thomas; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; meteoroid; meteor; nucleation; mesosphere; stratosphere; ablation; smoke; NLC; PMSE; PSC; Atmosphere and hydrosphere sciences; Atmosfärs- och hydrosfärsvetenskap; atmosfärvetenskap; Atmospheric Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the fate of the meteoric smoke in the Middle Atmosphere, and its effect on ice phenomena such as noctilucent clouds (NLC) and polar stratospheric clouds (PSC). The potential role of NLC as tracer for mesospheric processes and variability, and as a tool for monitoring this remote and inaccessible region, has generated substantial interest within the scientific community.

  3. 7. Decadal analysis of stratospheric ozone depletion using data assimilation and Odin/SMR measurements

    Författare :Kazutoshi Sagi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ozone loss; remote sensing; stratosphere; limb sounding; data assimilation;

    Sammanfattning : Serious ozone depletion has been measured every Antarctic spring since the early 80’s. This ozone depletion is considered to be a result of photo-chemical reactions and catalytic cycles resulting from anthropogenic halogen containing gases. facilitated by the formation of Polar Stratospheric Clouds (PSCs).

  4. 8. Techniques for the validation of Odin and ENVISAT satellite data

    Författare :Ashley Jones; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; data assimilation; remote sensing; ozone; Odin; stratosphere; validation; limb sounding; MIPAS; balloon sonde; systematic;

    Sammanfattning : The depletion of ozone from the stratosphere and the impact of global warming have been identified as phenomena caused as a result of anthropogenic activity. Scientists are thus trying to find quicker and more reliable ways to analyse these environmental problems. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Satellite Limb-Scatter Observations of Stratospheric NO2 and O3 -Retrievals, Validation and Applications

    Författare :Samuel Brohede; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; satellite; NO2; Odin; limb-scatter; validation; OSIRIS; stratosphere; remote sensing; O3; retrieval;

    Sammanfattning : Global observations of vertically resolved atmospheric constituents with high temporal and spatial sampling are crucial for various scientific assessments of ozone depletion and climate change. This thesis explains how such data can be retrieved from satellite limb-scatter observations. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Modelling the middle atmosphere and its sensitivity to climate change

    Författare :Andreas Jonsson; Jörg Gumbel; Joanna Haigh; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; climate change; middle atmosphere; ozone; carbon dioxide; stratosphere; mesosphere; chemical kinetics; atmospheric tides; Meteorology; Meteorologi;

    Sammanfattning : The Earth's middle atmosphere at about 10-100 km has shown a substantial sensitivity to human activities. First, the ozone layer has been reduced since the the early 1980s due to man-made emissions of halogenated hydrocarbons. LÄS MER
