EUSO-BALLOON a pathfinder for detecting UHECR's from the edge of space

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
EUSO-Balloon has been conceived as a pathfinder mission for JEM-EUSO, to perform an end-to-end test of the subsystems and components, and to prove the global detection chain while improving our knowledge of the atmospheric and terrestrial UV background ...

Global Assimilation of Loon Stratospheric Balloon Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research - Atmospheres, 2019
Accurate analyses of stratospheric winds are important for determining realistic constituent transport and providing improved diagnostic studies and forecasts of the stratosphere.

On the use of cup anemometers as wind speed sensors in stratospheric balloon missions

open access: yesJournal of Physics, Conference Series
Stratospheric balloon missions have emerged as a cost-effective alternative to space missions for scientific research and technology development. These missions enable the collection of critical data from the Earth’s upper atmosphere while reducing ...

Inter-comparison of stratospheric O3 and NO2 abundances retrieved from balloon borne direct sun observations and Envisat/SCIAMACHY limb measurements [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2006
Stratospheric O3 and NO2 abundances measured by different remote sensing instruments are inter-compared: (1) Line-of-sight absorptions and vertical profiles inferred from solar spectra in the ultra-violet (UV), visible and infrared (IR) wavelength ...

First Dual-Band Multiconstellation GNSS-R Scatterometry Experiment Over Boreal Forests From a Stratospheric Balloon

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2016
This work presents the first ever dual-frequency multiconstellation Reflectometry using Global Navigation Satellite Systems signals (GNSS-R) observations over boreal forests and lakes using GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo signals.

Impact of Weak‐Constraint Four‐Dimensional Variational data assimilation on the prediction of a sudden stratospheric warming event in 2024

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The Weak‐Constraint Four‐Dimensional Variational (WC‐4DVAR) system markedly improved the analysis and forecasting of the 2024 sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) event. It reduced biases and enhanced 7–9 day predictions of temperature across the SSW life cycle, with the most pronounced gains for winds also during the critical onset period.

Observations of meteoric material and implications for aerosol nucleation in the winter Arctic lower stratosphere derived from in situ particle measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Number concentrations of total and non-volatile aerosol particles with size diameters >0.01 μm as well as particle size distributions (0.4–23 μm diameter) were measured in situ in the Arctic lower stratosphere (10–20.5 km altitude). The measurements were
