First Observations of Large-Scale Wave Structure and Equatorial Spread F Using Certo Radio Beaconon the C/NOFS Satellite
First observations of large-scale wave structure and the subsequent development of equatorial spread F, using total electron content derived from the ground based reception of beacon signals from the CERTO…

C/NOFS and Radar Observations During a Convective Ionospheric Storm Event Over South America
Evidence for seeding by both gravity waves and the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability is presented.

Community Structure of Archaea in the Water Column Above Gas Hydrates in the Gulf of Mexico
In this study, we presented the 16S rDNA sequences and lipid profiles in the context of water chemistry to characterize the archaeal community structure above a gas hydrate mound (MC…

Backscatter Lidar Observations of Lower Tropospheric Dynamics During Southern California Wildfires
Wavelike features suggesting gravity waves were revealed by lidar observations (from El Segundo, California) of smoke layers produced by large wildfires in the Southern California region during a Santa Ana…

Calculating Protoplanet Collisions in the Early Solar System
We study shock-synthesized high-pressure phases in meteorites in infer the conditions under which they formed. These phase are found in or adjacent to locally melted veins or pockets that formed…

Temperature Dependent Nonlinear Absorption in InSb
Temperature dependent two-photon and free-carrier absorption spectra of InSb are measured using femtosecond, picosecond, and nanosecond IR sources. Measurements over this substantial range of pulsewidths give results consistent with a…
-
Spectral and Temperature Dependence of Nonlinear Absorption in InSb
Temperature dependent two-photon and free-carrier absorption spectra of InSb are measured using a tunable picosecond source via temperature controlled Z-scan experiments and show good agreement with theoretical predictions.

On the Charging of Mesospheric Dust
We consider the charging of dust grains, taking into account charging by thermal plasma and possible high energy particles, for a range of grain sizes. We also consider the effect…

Radar and Rocket Comparison of UHF Radar Scattering from Auroral Electrojet Irregularities: Implications for a Nanosatellite Radar
This article presents the estimates for UHF radar volume scattering coefficient of auroral electrojet irregularities based on previous measurements of absolute radar scattering coefficients and in situ rocket spectra.

Seasonal and Diurnal Variability of the Meteor Flux at High Latitudes Observed Using PFISR
Latitudinal and seasonal variability of the micrometeor input function: A study using model predictions and observations from Arecibo and PFISR.

Coordinated Optical and Radar Image Measurements of Noctilucent Clouds and Polar Mesospheric Summer Echoes
Novel coincident 3-D radar, lidar and optical image measurements of dynamical structures in polar mesosphere summer echoes (PMSE) and noctilucent clouds (NLC) are presented.

Observations of D-Region Structure and Atmospheric Tides with PFISR During Active Aurora
We report on combined spectral measurements of the D-region ionosphere and the polar summer mesosphere and lower thermosphere performed on 9 June 2007 with the 450 MHz Poker Flat Incoherent…
