Earth Sciences: Atmospheric Physics: Page 2

Here you will be introduced to research data and digital camera images of lower atmospheric plasma orbs gathered over a three year period from our isolated research site in Gulf Breeze, Florida.

The mission of the Atmospheric Physics Branch (SGP) is to advance the scientific knowledge and understanding of the physical processes that determine the behavior of the atmosphere on earth.

The Atmospheric Physics Group's main research is concentrated on improving our understanding of the physics and chemistry that determine the structure and composition of the middle and upper atmosphere.

Realtime data and archive of ionospheric parameters above Irkutsk and Norilsk (Russia) - electron and ion temperatures, plasma drift, electron density. Data obtained by Irkutsk Incoherent Scatter Radar and DigiSondes.

Experimental, modeling, and theoretical studies of climate and dynamics from the cryosphere to the middle atmosphere. Remote sensing of atmospheres of Earth and Mars. Abstracts from seminars and FAQ's on climate change.

New algorithms for solving non-linear large scale atmospheric circulations, numerical experiments, related books by Yong Zhu from New Knowledge Publishing.

Dynamical connection between the troposphere and stratosphere, including planetary wave-mean flow interaction, statistical tools (PCA/EOF,MCA/SVD,CCA), existence of circulation regimes (multiple equilibria).
