New insights into Rossby wave packet properties in the extratropical UTLS using GNSS radio occultations [PDF]
The present study describes Rossby wave packet (RWP) properties in the upper-troposphere and lower-stratosphere (UTLS) with the use of Global Navigation Satellite System radio occultation (GNSS-RO) measurements. This global study covering both hemisphere'

GNSS Radio Occultation in Advanced Numerical Weather Prediction Models
GPS-Radio Occultation (GPS-RO), and generally, Global Navigation Satellite System Radio Occultation (GNSS-RO), is a technique that measures the refractivity of the Earth's atmosphere as a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite listens to the radio signal of a ...

Assessment of upper tropospheric and stratospheric water vapor and ozone in reanalyses as part of S-RIP [PDF]
Reanalysis data sets are widely used to understand atmospheric processes and past variability, and are often used to stand in as “observations” for comparisons with climate model output.

The diurnal cycle of gravity waves in GNSS-RO data
Gravity wave sources such as convection are known to have a diurnal cycle, so it is expected that gravity waves should also follow a diurnal cycle. However, although this cycle can be simulated in models and observed in ground based data at fixed locations, it is difficult to observe in global satellite observations, due to their low time resolution ...

Forecast Impact of FORMOSAT‐7/COSMIC‐2 GNSS Radio Occultation Measurements
The FORMOSAT‐7/COSMIC‐2 GNSS‐RO mission was launched on June 25, 2019, and it has provided a large increase in the number of GNSS‐RO observations available for operational numerical weather prediction (NWP) in the latitude band between ±40°. A key aim of
