Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annals of the International Geophysical Year, Volume 25: Observations of the Night Airglow covers the results from systematic observations of the night airglow during the two and a half year period of the International Geophysical Year and International Geophysical Cooperation (July 1957 through December 1959). Airglow refers to light other than the polar aurora, emitted by the upper atmosphere. This volume is composed of eight chapters that contain a series of tables of hourly values of the absolute zenith intensity of the airglow, arranged according to station and wavelength. The numerical results from the several observers were put on punched cards to facilitate machine printing and statistical studies. The local times are given at the top of each page, and the universal times at the bottom. The year, month and day of the observations are shown in the first three columns. The convention was adopted of using the date corresponding to the evening, thus, the entire night of 1/2 July 1957 is entered as 1 July 1957 with the understanding that the date changed to 2 July at local midnight. The rest of the book considers the instruments, procedures, and statistic study of the night airglow. This book is of great value to geophysicists.

Download or read book Spectral Signature of the Earth s Night Airglow Observed from the Space Shuttle written by Paul J Bellaire (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1997-07-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GLO was designed at the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory of the University of Arizona to observe auroral and airglow emissions, and recorded midlatitude airglow data near equinox during Space Shuttle mission STS-69 in September 1995. GLO observations from the shuttle recorded the night airglow layer seen edge on at the Earth's limb. These observations from orbit exhibit a fundamentally different picture of the night airglow compared to observations from the ground. GLO data also represent the first simultaneous optical measurements of airglow emissions over the spectral range from 1150 to 9000 A, showing global emission variations in the night sky. Intensity variations are not correlated among emitting species, implying greater dynamism and more complex chemical interactions in the airglow than previously assumed. Although other researchers have described observations of organized waves and tides in the night airglow, these prior observations are sporadic or averaged over long time periods. The night sky intensity variations recorded by GLO do not exhibit any obvious relationship to atmospheric tides.

Book excerpt: Observations of the night airglow were made at Sacramento Peak, New Mexico, at San Juan, Argentina, and at Tonantzintla, Mexico. The data of the night airglow, received from these stations as well as from Huancayo, Peru, were reduced and tabulated. Calibration techniques for the photometer are described. Special studies of airglow phenomena and special observations of the airglow emissions at twilight with the birefringent filter type photometer and with the night sky spectrograph are discussed. Work on the instrumentation is described. (Author).
