Simplified Relations for the Martian Night-Time OH* Suitable for the Interpretation of Observations
Remote Sensing, 2022 Observations of excited hydroxyl (OH*) emissions are broadly used for inferring information about atmospheric dynamics and composition. We present several analytical approximations for characterizing the excited hydroxyl layer in the Martian atmosphere ...

Extraction of Quasi-Monochromatic Gravity Waves from an Airglow Imager Network
Atmosphere, 2020 An algorithm has been developed to isolate the gravity waves (GWs) of different scales from airglow images. Based on the discrete wavelet transform, the images are decomposed and then reconstructed in a series of mutually orthogonal spaces, each of which

On the Origin of Near-Infrared Extragalactic Background Light Anisotropy [PDF]
, 2014 Extragalactic background light (EBL) anisotropy traces variations in the total production of photons over cosmic history, and may contain faint, extended components missed in galaxy point source surveys.

Characterization of a Double Mesospheric Bore Over Europe [PDF]
, 2017 Observations of a pair of mesospheric bore disturbances that propagated through the nighttime mesosphere over Europe are presented. The observations were made at the Padua Observatory, Asiago (45.9\ub0N, 11.5\ub0E), by the Boston University all-sky ...

Analysis of 2D airglow imager data with respect to dynamics using machine learning [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2023 We demonstrate how machine learning can be easily applied to support the analysis of large quantities of excited hydroxyl (OH*) airglow imager data. We use a TCN (temporal convolutional network) classification algorithm to automatically pre-sort images ...

Optical Night-Sky Brightness at Mauna Kea over the Course of a Complete Sunspot Cycle [PDF]
, 1997 We have produced a data base of V-band and B-band night-sky brightness measurements rather evenly spread out over the course of a whole sunspot cycle from September 1985 to August 1996.

The airglow layer emission altitude cannot be determined unambiguously from temperature comparison with lidars [PDF]
, 2018 I investigate the nightly mean emission height and width of the OH*(3-1) layer by comparing nightly mean temperatures measured by the ground-based spectrometer GRIPS 9 and the Na lidar at ALOMAR.

Studying a Long-Lasting Meteor Trail from Stereo Images and Radar Data
Atmosphere, 2021 Unique observation of a long-lasting meteor trail of about half an hour duration is described. The trail resulted from a burning meteor from the Leonid storm flux in the middle latitudes over eastern Siberia.
