Observations of the Arctic troposphere and lower stratosphere with the SOUSY Svalbard Radar (scientific note)
The SOUSY Svalbard Radar was operated in the ST (stratospheretroposphere) mode during tests and several campaigns since September 1998. Here we describe the configuration used for this purpose. We present results of wind and reflectivity profiles, showing layered structures during passage of synopti...

Summary: | The SOUSY Svalbard Radar was operated in the ST (stratospheretroposphere) mode during tests and several campaigns since September 1998. Here we describe the configuration used for this purpose. We present results of wind and reflectivity profiles, showing layered structures during passage of synoptic-scale disturbances and tropopause variations. It is also reported that lee wave activity is frequently quite pronounced over Svalbard. |
