Abstract
A mobile Rayleigh temperature lidar was deployed in Golmud (36.25°N 94.54°E), Qinghai in China for making measurements of mesosphere temperature from 55 up to 90 km. The mesospheric thermal structure was obtained during the winter seasons of Year 2013 and Year 2014. At the altitude of 57~79 km, lidar temperatures were much colder than the MSIS-00 model predictions. However, in the lower mesosphere region, lidar measurements were in reasonable agreement compared with the TIMED-SABER satellite data.
Highlights
Temperature is a winter thermal structure derived from ~400 h key parameter for understanding the chemical, dynamic, and radiative processes in the atmosphere
Receiver was a prime focus telescope of atmospheric temperature is affected by waves
The lidar temperatures in lower mesosphere between 57 km and 79 km were considerably lower than the MSIS-00 predictions
Summary
1. INTRODUCTION Temperature is a winter thermal structure derived from ~400 h key parameter for understanding the chemical, dynamic, and radiative processes in the atmosphere. Middle of lidar measurements at Golmud during the winter seasons in 2013 and 2014. Extensive temperature observations of middle mechanical chopper in the receiver chain atmosphere have been conducted at several blocked any signals below 50 km in order to critical sites, including the South Pole and the prevent PMT saturation caused by strong lidar
