A High Spatial Resolution Retrieval of No2 Column Densities from Omi: Method and Evaluation
We present a new retrieval of tropospheric NO2 vertical column density from the OMI based on high spatial and temporal resolution terrain and profile inputs.

Gravity Wave Activity in the Arctic Stratosphere and Mesosphere During the 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 Stratospheric Sudden Warming Events
We report Rayleigh lidar measurements of nightly temperature profiles in the 40–80 km altitude region and 30 min relative density profiles in the 40–50 km altitude region at Chatanika, Alaska…

On Equatorial Spread F: Establishing a Seeding Hypothesis
The objective here is to answer questions that may impede the general acceptance of the equatorial spread F hypothesis.

Diagnostic-Photographic Determination of Drag/Lift/Torque Coefficients of a High Speed Rigid Body in a Water Column
A semi-empirical method is developed in this study to determine the drag/lift and torque coefficients for a fast-moving rigid body in a water column.

Spectral and Temperature Dependence of Two-Photon and Free-Carrier Absorption in InSb
The nonlinear absorption spectrum of InSb was measured using a combination of tunable ∼160 fs, ∼10 ps, and ∼150 ns IR sources along with a cryostat for controlling the sample temperature to vary the band gap energy…

A Comprehensive Rocket and Radar Study of Midlatitude Spread F
The new phase-sensitive ionosonde system operated at Wallops Island during the experiment confirms the long-standing hypothesis that this particular spread F event arises from multipath echoes distributed over a wide field of…

Identification of Substorm Onset Location and Preonset Sequence Using Reimei, THEMIS GBO, PFISR, and Geotail
We present state-of-the-art multiple instrument observations of an isolated substorm on October 12, 2007.

Thermospheric Temperatures Above Poker Flat, Alaska, During the Stratospheric Warming Event of January and February 2009
We report observations of neutral and ion temperatures at approximately 240 km altitude above Poker Flat, Alaska, taken during the stratospheric warming event of January and February 2009.

Preonset Time Sequence of Auroral Substorms: Coordinated Observations By All-Sky Imagers, Satellites, and Radars
We show that longitudinally narrow flow bursts in the nightside polar cap can precede poleward boundary intensifications that are followed by equatorward moving north-south arcs.

Discovery of the FeO orange bands in the terrestrial night airglow spectrum obtained with OSIRIS on the Odin spacecraft
An unidentified pseudo-continuum in the 600 nm region is observed in the upper mesosphere with the limb-scanning OSIRIS imaging spectrograph on-board the Odin spacecraft.

Radar Detection of a Localized 1.4 Hz Pulsation in Auroral Plasma, Simultaneous with Pulsating Optical Emissions, During a Substorm
A ground based diagnostic of kilometer-scale oscillating electric fields would be a valuable tool in the study of pulsations and the auroral substorm.

Determination of Physical and Radiant Meteor Properties Using PFISR Interferometry Measurements of Head Echoes
We have developed a methodology which takes advantage of the multi-receiving capabilities of the 450 MHz Poker Flat Incoherent Scatter Radar (PFISR) enabling us to utilize the phased array of crossed-dipoles…
