Scientific Programme
Infrasound, airglow and lidar are the main three subjects that are covered in the
ARISE Training School. The scientific programme is built on three sessions:
Session 1: Instrumentation and Observational Techniques
- Lidar techniques and temperature and wind retrieval
- Infrasound technique and products
- OH spectrometry and temperature retrieval
- Microwave technique and wind retrieval
- Temperature measurements from space
Session 2: Atmospheric Dynamics
- Gravity waves: theory and processing
- Planetary waves and stratospheric warming
- Atmospheric tides
- Temperature trends
- Thunderstorms: large scale effects: convection, stratospheric effects
- Atmospheric physics around the mesopause
- Numerical atmospheric models
Session 3: Extreme Events, Applications and Numerical Tools
- Infrasound: sources, propagation, inversions
- Monitoring of extreme events: volcanoes, avalanches, cyclones
- Thunderstorms: lightning, sprites
- High altitude sources: meteorites
- Monitoring methods, detection capabilities
Training activities using data from the OHP observational campaign:
- Lidar temperatures with several parameters
- Analyze data from infrasound sensors
- Investigate OH spectrum
- …
