Candidates for asteroid dust trails [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The contribution of different sources to the circumsolar dust cloud (known as the zodiacal cloud) can be deduced from diagnostic observations. We used the Spitzer Space Telescope to observe the diffuse thermal emission of the zodiacal cloud near the ...

A Comparison of the Midlatitude Nickel and Sodium Layers in the Mesosphere: Observations and Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 127, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
Abstract A dual‐wavelength resonance fluorescence lidar facility, operating at 341 and 589 nm, was used to observe simultaneously the Ni and Na layers in the upper atmosphere over Yanqing station, Beijing (40.41°N, 116.01°E). Lidar measurements were performed on 126 nights (1090 hr in total) from April 2019 to March 2020 and April 2021 to August 2021 ...

The Terrestrial Biosphere Model Farm

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Model Intercomparison Projects (MIPs) are fundamental to our understanding of how the land surface responds to changes in climate. However, MIPs are challenging to conduct, requiring the organization of multiple, decentralized modeling teams throughout the world running common protocols.

THE FLUCTUATIONS IN THE IRAS DISTRIBUTION

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
The great fluctuations in the infrared sky are situated along the meridians of Universal Sky Net. It is related also to the large structures. So the edge of the zone of avoidance of galaxies over IRAS60 and IRAS100 for long extension coincides to the Γ-

Clementine Observations of the Zodiacal Light and the Dust Content of the Inner Solar System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Using the Moon to occult the Sun, the Clementine spacecraft used its navigation cameras to map the inner zodiacal light at optical wavelengths over elongations of 3-30 degrees from the Sun.

Evidence for dust evolution within the Taurus Complex from Spitzer images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present Spitzer images of the Taurus Complex (TC) and take advantage of the sensitivity and spatial resolution of the observations to characterize the diffuse IR emission across the cloud.

Dust Measurements in the Outer Solar System [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Dust measurements in the outer solar system are reviewed. Only the plasma wave instrument on board Voyagers 1 and 2 recorded impacts in the Edgeworth-Kuiper belt (EKB).

Observations of the Near-infrared Spectrum of the Zodiacal Light with CIBER [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Interplanetary dust (IPD) scatters solar radiation which results in the zodiacal light that dominates the celestial diffuse brightness at optical and near-infrared wavelengths.

The Mid-Infrared Spectrum of the Zodiacal and Exozodiacal Light [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The zodiacal light is the dominant source of the mid-infrared sky brightness seen from Earth, and exozodiacal light is the dominant emission from planetary and debris systems around other stars.
