Simulation of Water Vapor Transport to the Stratosphere by Overshooting Convection
Abstract Deep convection that penetrates the tropopause (overshooting convection) transports water vapor and other tropospheric constituents to the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS). Overshooting convection has chemical and radiative impacts on the UTLS, including the downward transport of ozone and hydration of the stratosphere ...

As the number of resident space objects (RSOs) orbiting Earth increases, the risk of collision increases, and mitigating this risk requires the detection, identification, characterization, and tracking of as many RSOs as possible in view at any given ...

Lightweight avionics platform to access atmospheric environmental science [PDF]
There is a region of the atmosphere between approximately 10-40 km above the Earth’s surface that is inaccessible to most winged aircraft and that rockets visit only fleetingly, but where small unmanned balloons are increasingly being used to carry ...

HCl and ClO in activated Arctic air; first retrieved vertical profiles from TELIS submillimetre limb spectra [PDF]
The first profile retrieval results of the Terahertz and submillimeter Limb Sounder (TELIS) balloon instrument are presented. The spectra are recorded during a 13-h balloon flight on 24 January 2010 from Kiruna, Sweden.
