A New Method for Deriving Aerosol Solar Radiative Forcing and Its First Application Within Milagro/Intex-B
We introduce a method for deriving aerosol spectral radiative forcing along with single scattering albedo, asymmetry parameter, and surface albedo from airborne vertical profile measurements of shortwave spectral irradiance and…

Development of an Autonomous Sea Ice Tethered Buoy for the Study of Ocean-Atmosphere-Sea Ice-Snow Pack Interactions: the O-Buoy
A buoy based instrument platform (the "O-buoy") was designed, constructed, and field tested for year-round measurement of ozone, bromine monoxide, carbon dioxide, and meteorological variables over Arctic sea ice.

Visible and Near-Infrared Nightglow of Molecular Oxygen in the Atmosphere of Venus
We search for the emission of the Herzberg II system of O2 at 400 nm–700 nm in spectra obtained with the VIRTIS instrument on Venus Express.

Large Magnetoresistance of Thick Polymer Devices Having La0.67 Sr0.33 MnO3 Electrodes
We report magnetoresistance(MR) measurements for structures with micrometer-thick regioregular, polythiophene (rr-P3HT) polymer layers between two ferromagnetic contacts.

Nightside Ionospheric Electrodynamics Associated with Substorms: PFISR and THEMIS ASI Observations
Observations from the newly available Poker Flat Incoherent Scatter Radar have been used to study the ionospheric electrodynamics during the substorm expansion phase.

Evidence That Solar Wind Fluctuations Substantially Affect the Strength of Dayside Ionospheric Convection
We have considered the solar wind characteristics that lead to oscillatory convection enhancements. We have used an extensive set of Sondrestrom radar observations of ionospheric convection within the dayside polar…

Evidence That Solar Wind Fluctuations Substantially Affect Global Convection and Substorm Occurrence
We find evidence of intensified interplanetary ULF fluctuations substantially enhance nightside convection flows and the fluctuations are reflected in the fluctuation power of the nightside flows.

Seasonal Oscillations of Middle Atmosphere Temperature Observed By Rayleigh Lidars and Their Comparisons with Timed/Saber Observations
The long-term temperature data sets obtained by Rayleigh lidars at six different locations from low to high latitudes within the NDACC were used to derive the annual oscillations and semiannual…

Observations of Ionospheric Heating During the Passage of Solar Coronal Hole Fast Streams
Using ionospheric temperature measurements made continuously by the PFISR and ESR during the International Polar Year, we provide evidence for directly driven ionospheric heating associated with the solar wind corotating…

Signatures of Low Latitude-High Latitude Coupling in the Tropical MLT Region During Sudden Stratospheric Warming
The present paper analyses the variations of daytime mesopause temperature over an equatorial station during polar Stratospheric Sudden Warming (SSW) events, indicating a possible dynamical coupling between the two regions,…

Analysis and Interpretation of Mars Dayglow Altitude Profiles
The Mariner 4, Mariner 6 and 7, Mariner 9, and Viking 1 and 2 missions provided the first quantitative information about the structure, energetics, and dynamics of the Mars atmosphere.

Estimating E Region Density Profiles from Radio Occultation Measurements Assisted By IDA4D
An alternative approach for estimating E region density profiles using radio occultation total electron content (ROTEC) measurements is presented.
