Radio occultation (RO) is one of the most efficient techniques for studying fine vertical structures in planetary atmospheres. However, the geometrical optics (GO) method, which has been used for the analysis of RO data, suffers blurring by the finite ...

. While water vapor is the most important tropospheric greenhouse gas, it is also highly variable in both space and time, and water vapor concentrations range over 3 orders of magnitude in the troposphere. These properties challenge all observing systems

A new method for probing the spatial and temporal features of the topside ionosphere is presented. The Vary‐Chap model given by linear functions was used to discover and report features of the topside scale height and its gradient.

The tropopause height analysis in equatorial region through the GPS-RO
This study was performed to analyze the variation level of tropopause height in vertical resolution using radio occultation (RO) data from GRACE database due to the high spatial resolution of radio occultation data.

The Discovery of Quasars and its Aftermath [PDF]
Although the extragalactic nature of quasars was discussed as early as 1960, it was rejected largely because of preconceived ideas about what appeared to be an unrealistically high radio and optical luminosity. Following the 1962 occultations of the strong radio source 3C 273 at Parkes, and the subsequent identification with an apparent stellar object,

Several outstanding issues concerning the ionosphere of Mars
Several outstanding issues concerning the ionosphere of Mars can be addressed with the support of radio occultation observations acquired near the solar zenith angle limit of 45 $$^{\circ }$$ ∘ .

GPS Radio Occultation: Results from CHAMP, GRACE and FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC
The Taiwan/US FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC (FORMOsa SATellite mission - 3/Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate) satellite nstellation was successfully launched on 14 April 2006. It is expected to leverage the use of the GPS (Global
