    High resolution atmospheric transmission calculations down to 28.7 km in the 200-243-nm spectral range (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Decrease in stratospheric ozone absorption and increase in oxygen absorption with decreasing wavelength combine to produce a window of maximum atmospheric transmission near 210 nm. Since solar radiation in this spectral region dissociates molecular oxygen, the deep atmospheric penetration at this wavelength is of particular aeronomical interest. High resolution calculations of the transmittance down to 28.65 km were made for the 200-243-nm spectral range in this window region, in support of a stratospheric balloon flight from Fort Churchill in July 1974. The calculations were made by dividing the atmosphere into layers which were chosen so that each could be assumed homogeneous; optical depths were calculated separately for each of these layers and then summed to obtain the over-all transmittance of the atmosphere. Absorption by molecular oxygen (line and continuum) and by ozone was included, as well as extinction through Rayleigh scattering by air molecules. The calculated transmittances were combined with high altitude (above 100-km) rocket measurements of the sun-center spectrum and center-to-limb variations to give residual high resolution solar spectral flux for several altitudes and solar zenith angles.

    Geodynamics experiment MA-128 (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-12
    Description: The Apollo Soyuz Test Project Geodynamics Experiment was performed to assess the feasibility of tracking and recovering high frequency components of the earth gravity field by utilizing a synchronous orbiting tracking station such as Applications Technology Satellite 6. Two prime areas of data collection were selected for this experiment. The first area is the center of the African continent, and the second area is the Indian Ocean depression centered at latitude 5 N and longitude 75 E. Preliminary results show that the detectability objective of the experiment has been achieved in both areas as well as in several additional anomalous areas around the globe. Gravity anomalies of the Karakoram and Himalayan mountain ranges of ocean trenches, and of the Diamantina depth are specific examples.

    Ocean gravity and geoid determination (1977)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Gravity anomalies have been recovered in the North Atlantic and the Indian Ocean regions. Comparisons of 63 2 deg x 2 deg mean free air gravity anomalies recovered in the North Atlantic area and 24 5 deg x 5 deg mean free air gravity anomalies in the Indian Ocean area with surface gravimetric measurements have shown agreement to + or - 8 mgals for both solutions. Geoids derived from the altimeter solutions are consistent with altimetric sea surface height data to within the precision of the data, about + or - 2 meters.

    Rocket-borne measurements of the dayside cleft plasma - The Tordo experiments (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Results are presented from low-energy plasma analyzers (12 eV to 12 keV) carried on two rockets launched into the dayside cleft during January 1975. It is concluded that (1) atmospheric interaction becomes important for less than 1-keV electrons at approximately 250 km, (2) characteristics of particles in 'inverted V's' observed in the afternoon cleft are consistent with their interpretation as being due to parallel electric field acceleration from a constant source population, and (3) magnetospheric energetic (greater than 2 keV) electrons intermingle with magnetosheathlike plasma in the cleft.

    Utility of correlation techniques in gravity and magnetic interpretation (1977)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Two methods of quantitative combined analysis, internal correspondence and clustering, are presented. Model studies are used to illustrate implementation and interpretation procedures of these methods, particularly internal correspondence. Analysis of the results of applying these methods to data from the midcontinent and a transcontinental profile show they can be useful in identifying crustal provinces, providing information on horizontal and vertical variations of physical properties over province size zones, validating long wave-length anomalies, and isolating geomagnetic field removal problems. Thus, these techniques are useful in considering regional data acquired by satellites.

    Gravity anomaly detection: Apollo/Soyuz (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The Goddard Apollo-Soyuz Geodynamics Experiment is described. It was performed to demonstrate the feasibility of tracking and recovering high frequency components of the earth's gravity field by utilizing a synchronous orbiting tracking station such as ATS-6. Gravity anomalies of 5 MGLS or larger having wavelengths of 300 to 1000 kilometers on the earth's surface are important for geologic studies of the upper layers of the earth's crust. Short wavelength Earth's gravity anomalies were detected from space. Two prime areas of data collection were selected for the experiment: (1) the center of the African continent and (2) the Indian Ocean Depression centered at 5% north latitude and 75% east longitude. Preliminary results show that the detectability objective of the experiment was met in both areas as well as at several additional anomalous areas around the globe. Gravity anomalies of the Karakoram and Himalayan mountain ranges, ocean trenches, as well as the Diamantina Depth, can be seen. Maps outlining the anomalies discovered are shown.

    Observations of 10-eV to 25-keV electrons in steady diffuse aurora from Atmosphere Explorer C and D (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Electron energy spectra from 10 eV to 25 keV have been obtained from steady diffuse auroral forms at altitudes above 150 km by the Atmosphere Explorer C and D spacecraft. Overlapping coverage of the energy range was provided by the photoelectron spectrometer experiment (10-500 eV) and the low-energy electron experiment (0.2-25 keV). The spectral shape between 10 and 20 eV is independent of altitude between 150 and 270 km, has variable energy dependence between about 20 and 150 eV, and above approximately 150 eV has energy dependence determined primarily by the details of the energy spectrum of electrons incident on the atmosphere. The observed results are in satisfactory agreement with two recently published model calculations.

    Microwave sensing of atmospheric temperature and humidity from satellites (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: A 5-channel microwave spectrometer (NEMS) carried on the Nimbus 5 satellite has been taking scans near the 22.235 GHz water vapor resonance and 60 GHz oxygen absorption complex for over 2 years; spectral measurement techniques are described at length. NEMS determinations of atmospheric temperature profiles over 0 to 20 km, and of precipitable water vapor and liquid water over oceans, are compared to relevant radiosonde data and to data reported in analyses by the U.S.A. National Meteorological Center. Some discrepancies between theoretical prediction and empirical evidence are reconciled by examining effects of atmospheric fluctuations. The radiosonde data respond to local fluctuations and do not yield true averages over the large areas sensed remotely by the NEMS.

    Utility of correlation techniques in gravity and magnetic interpretation (1977)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Internal correspondence uses Poisson's Theorem in a moving-window linear regression analysis between the anomalous first vertical derivative of gravity and total magnetic field reduced to the pole. The regression parameters provide critical information on source characteristics. The correlation coefficient indicates the strength of the relation between magnetics and gravity. Slope value gives delta j/delta sigma estimates of the anomalous source. The intercept furnishes information on anomaly interference. Cluster analysis consists of the classification of subsets of data into groups of similarity based on correlation of selected characteristics of the anomalies. Model studies are used to illustrate implementation and interpretation procedures of these methods, particularly internal correspondence. Analysis of the results of applying these methods to data from the midcontinent and a transcontinental profile shows they can be useful in identifying crustal provinces, providing information on horizontal and vertical variations of physical properties over province size zones, validating long wavelength anomalies, and isolating geomagnetic field removal problems.

    Proceedings: Workshop on the Need for Lightning Observations from Space (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The results of the Workshop on the Need for Lightning Observations from Space held February 13-15, 1979, at the University of Tennessee Space Institute, Tullahoma, Tennessee are presented. The interest and active involvement by the engineering, operational, and scientific participants in the workshop demonstrated that lightning observations from space is a goal well worth pursuing. The unique contributions, measurement requirements, and supportive research investigations were defined for a number of important applications. Lightning has a significant role in atmospheric processes and needs to be systematically investigated. Satellite instrumentation specifically designed for indicating the characteristics of lightning are of value in severe storms research, in engineering and operational problem areas, and in providing information on atmospheric electricity and its role in meteorological processes.
