      Conte, J. F.; Chau, Jorge L.; Urco, Juan M.; Latteck, Ralph; Vierinen, Juha; Salvador, Jacobo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-18)
      This paper presents for the first time results on winds, tides, gradients of horizontal winds, and momentum fluxes at mesosphere and lower thermosphere altitudes over southern Patagonia, one of the most dynamically active regions in the world. For this purpose, measurements provided by SIMONe Argentina are investigated. SIMONe Argentina is a novel multistatic specular meteor radar system ...
    • Frequency spectra of horizontal winds in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere region from multistatic specular meteor radar observations during the SIMONe 2018 campaign

      In recent years, multistatic specular meteor radars (SMRs) have been introduced to study the Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere (MLT) dynamics with increasing spatial and temporal resolution. SMRs, compared to other groundbased observations, have the advantage of continuously measuring the region between 80 and 100 km independent of weather, season, or time of day. In this paper, frequency spectra ...
    • Radar imaging with EISCAT 3D 

      Stamm, Johann; Vierinen, Juha; Urco, Juan M.; Gustavsson, Björn; Chau, Jorge L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-04)
      A new incoherent scatter radar called EISCAT 3D is being constructed in northern Scandinavia. It will have the capability to produce volumetric images of ionospheric plasma parameters using aperture synthesis radar imaging. This study uses the current design of EISCAT 3D to explore the theoretical radar imaging performance when imaging electron density in the E region and compares numerical techniques ...
