Seasonal,annual, and interannual variability in MLT quasi-two-day waves over the low-latitude region Kolhapur (16.8°N; 74.2°E)

This study presents the quasi-two-day wave (Q2DW) characteristics of the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) region obtained by taking hourly mean values of horizontal wind velocities for 4? years (August 2013–July 2017) through continuous measurements using a medium-frequency (MF) radar (operating frequency – 1.98?MHz) located at the low-latitude Indian station Kolhapur (16.8°N; 74.2°E). The MF radar located at Kolhapur was upgraded in 2013, and these results of Q2DW have been reported for the first time after upgrading. The present study investigated variability in seasonal, annual, interannual, and solar indices of Q2DWs traveling in zonal (EW) and meridional (NS) components in the MLT region. The Q2DW activity is observed to be stronger during austral summer (January–February) (EW?=?～5?m/s and NS?=?～8–10?m/s) than during boreal summer (June–July) (EW = ～5 m/s and NS = ～6–8?m/s). The Q2DW amplitudes are larger in the meridional component than in the zonal one. A strong semiannual oscillation (SAO) has been observed in Q2DWs, with peak during January–February and June–July. In addition, small enhancement is seen in meridional Q2DW in October (～5–6?m/s). It is observed that the entire spectrum (40–60?h) measured between 86 and 94?km contributes to the SAO amplitudes during January–February and June–July, whereas the waves measured between 42?h and 52?h contribute to enhancement in October similar to that reported elsewhere. In general, the Q2DW amplitude shows large interannual variability. The easterlies developed in the global circulation model in Northern hemisphere during May intensify up to around summer solstice. Q2DW activity peaks during westerly shear zone and intensifies with time at a lower thermospheric altitude (above 90?km). Small positive correlations (r?=?0.2 for sunspot number and r?=?0.1 for 10.7?cm solar flux) have been observed between Q2DW amplitudes and solar activity.

The evaluation of damped Newton variational ocean wind retrieval method

This paper researches on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) ocean wind retrieval approach, evaluates the method of Damped Newton VARiational method (DNVAR) and the direct method (DIRECT) using two years’ real SAR data and different background winds. Experiments are carried out using SENTINEL-1 SAR information as observation, National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) buoy data as in-situ data, Global Forecast System (GFS), Advanced SCATterometer (ASCAT), WindSAT, and Cross-Calibrated Multi-Platform (CCMP) wind products as background data. Thousands of match-ups are extracted. Results show that DNVAR can improve the wind field accuracy when the background data is ASCAT and CCMP. Especially, DNVAR wind speed results are much better than the official product of SENTINEL-1 wind data. The background data is crucial to the wind field retrieval results, so high accuracy of background data could lead to high accuracy results.
