متن کاملPolar Mesosphere Winter Echoes during Solar Proton Events
Thin layers of enhanced radar echoes in the winter mesosphere have been observed by the ESRAD 52 MHz MST radar (67° 53 ‘ N, 21 ° 06 ‘ E) during several recent solar proton events. These polar mesosphere winter echoes (PMWE) can occur at any time of day or night above 70 km altitude, whereas below this height they are seen only during daytime. An energy deposition / ion-chemical model is used to...
متن کاملThe thermal and dynamical state of the atmosphere during polar mesosphere winter echoes
In January 2005, a total of 18 rockets were launched from the Andøya Rocket Range in Northern Norway (69 N) into strong VHF radar echoes called “Polar Mesosphere Winter Echoes” (PMWE). The echoes were observed in the lower and middle mesosphere during large solar proton fluxes. In general, PMWE occur much more seldom compared to their summer counterparts PMSE (typical occurrence rates at 69 N a...
متن کاملThe dynamical background of polar mesosphere winter echoes from simultaneous EISCAT and ESRAD observations
On 30 October 2004 during a strong solar proton event, layers of enhanced backscatter from altitudes between 55 and 75 km have been observed by both ESRAD (52 MHz) and the EISCAT VHF (224 MHz) radars. These echoes have earlier been termed Polar Mesosphere Winter Echoes, PMWE. After considering the morphology of the layers and their relation to observed atmospheric waves, we conclude that the ra...
متن کاملPolar Mesosphere Summer Radar Echoes: Observations and Current Theories
The remarkably strong radar echoes from the summer polar mesosphere have been an enigma to atmospheric and radar scientists since their discovery more than a decade ago. Since then, more sophisticated radar experiments and in situ rocket measurements have shed some light on the underlying physics and chemistry, and theories have been formulated to explain the generation of the intense radar bac...
