Meteor radar measurements of mean winds and tides over Collm (51.3° N, 13° E) and comparison with LF drift measurements 2005–2007 [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Radio Science, 2011
An all-sky VHF meteor radar (MR) has been continuously operated at Collm (51.3° N, 13° E) since summer 2004. The radar measures meteor parameters, diffusion coefficients, and horizontal winds in the mesopause region.

Meteor Radar for Investigation of the MLT Region: A Review

open access: yesAtmosphere
This is an introductory review of modern meteor radar and its application to the measurement of the dynamical parameters of the Mesosphere Lower Thermosphere (MLT) Region within the altitude range of around 70 to 110 km, which is where most meteors are ...

All‐Sky Interferometric Meteor Radar Observations of Zonal Structure and Drifts of Low‐Latitude Ionospheric E Region Irregularities

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2019
All‐sky interferometric meteor radar has been operated worldwide for the measurements of neutral winds in the mesopause region. In this paper, we employ an all‐sky meteor radar and an ionospheric radar, which are situated at Ledong (18.4°N,109°E) and ...

EU Space Law and Earth's Boundaries: Integrating Environmental Impact Assessment and Corporate Due Diligence

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European Union's proposed Space Law aims to establish a unified approach for sustainable space activities across the EU. While the EU's satellite constellations contribute to sustainability efforts, they can also have negative environmental impacts.

Letter to the Editior
Testing the hypothesis of the influence of neutral turbulence on the deduction of ambipolar diffusivities from meteor trail expansion
[PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2005
Fading times of radar echoes from underdense meteor trails in the upper mesosphere/lower thermosphere are commonly used to determine ambipolar diffusivities and hence ambient temperature.

Terrestrial ages of meteorites from the Atacama Desert (Chile) and insights into the past meteorite flux to Earth

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Atacama Desert in Chile is characterized by its high meteorite density and old meteorite terrestrial ages. In this work, we present new terrestrial ages derived from measurements of the concentration of cosmogenic 36Cl in the metal fraction of 51 ordinary chondrites collected over a 6.8 km2 area located in the Catalina Dense Collection ...

On the influence of neutral turbulence on ambipolar diffusivities deduced from meteor trail expansion [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2002
By measuring fading times of radar echoes from underdense meteor trails, it is possible to deduce the ambipolar diffusivities of the ions responsible for these radar echoes.

Mesospheric and Lower Thermospheric Responses to the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm in the Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract We analyze the response of mean winds and semidiurnal tides (SDTs) in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT; ∼70–110 km altitude) to the May 2024 geomagnetic super storm, based on meteor radar (MR) observations from King Sejong Station (KSS; geographic: 62.22°S, 58.78°W; geomagnetic: 53.27°S, 10.88°E) in the Antarctic Peninsula.

Meteor fluxes and visual magnitudes from EISCAT radar event rates: a comparison with cross-section based magnitude estimates and optical data [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1998
Incoherent scatter radars (ISR) are versatile instruments for continuous monitoring of ionisation processes in the Earth's atmosphere. EISCAT, The European Incoherent Scatter facility has proven effective also in meteor studies. The time resolution of

Thousand‐Kilometer‐Scale Wavelike Undulations in Ionospheric Plasma Bubble Lifetime and Development Over Wide Longitudes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The irregularities of ionospheric plasma bubbles (EPBs) sequentially generated over wide longitudes are expected to share similar lifetime under normal conditions. In this study, we report a special case where the EPB irregularity lifetime over wide longitudes showed a quasi‐wavelike undulation pattern with wavelength of ∼3,000 km, that is ...
