| Zusammenfassung |
| The "Scandinavian Triangle" is a unique trio of radars within the DATAR Project
(Dynamics and Temperatures from the Arctic MLT (60–97km) region): Andenes MF
radar (69°N, 16°E); Tromsø MF radar (70°N, 19°E) and Esrange "Meteor" radar (68°N,
21°E). The radar-spacings range from 125-270km, making it unique for studies of wind
variability associated with small-scale waves, comparisons of large-scale waves measured
over small spacings, and for comparisons of winds from different radar systems. As such
it complements results from arrays having spacings of 25km and 500km that have been
located near Saskatoon. Correlation analysis is used to demonstrate a speed bias (MF
smaller than the Meteor) between the radar types, which varies with season and altitude.
Annual climatologies for the year 2000 of mean winds, solar tides, planetary and gravity
waves are presented, and show indications of significant spatial variability across the
Triangle and of differences in wave characteristics from middle latitudes.
Key words: Meteorology and atmospheric dynamics (middle
atmosphere dynamics; waves and tides: instrument and
techniques) |
