Radio Occultation Data

AbstractBayesian interpolation has previously been proposed as a strategy to construct maps of radio occultation (RO) data, but that proposition did not consider the diurnal dimension of RO data. In this work, the basis functions of Bayesian interpolation are extended into the domain of the diurnal cycle, thus enabling monthly mapping of radio occultation data in synoptic time and analysis of the atmospheric tides. The basis functions are spherical harmonics multiplied by sinusoids in the diurnal cycle up to arbitrary spherical harmonic degree and diurnal cycle harmonic. Bayesian interpolation requires a regularizer to impose smoothness on the fits it produces, thereby preventing the overfitting of data. In this work, a formulation for the regularizer is proposed and the most probable values of the parameters of the regularizer determined. Special care is required when obvious gaps in the sampling of the diurnal cycle are known to occur in order to prevent the false detection of statistically significant high-degree harmonics of the diurnal cycle in the atmosphere. Finally, this work probes the ability of Bayesian interpolation to generate a valid uncertainty analysis of the fit. The postfit residuals of Bayesian interpolation are dominated not by measurement noise but by unresolved variability in the atmosphere, which is statistically nonuniform across the globe, thus violating the central assumption of Bayesian interpolation. The problem is ameliorated by constructing maps of RO data using Bayesian interpolation that partially resolve the temporal variability of the atmosphere, constructing maps for approximately every 3 days of RO data.

<p>An objective of the GRACE-FO mission is the continuation of GRACE radio occultation measurements successfully performed between 2006 and 2017.</p> <p>GRACE and GRACE-FO radio occultations contribute to the overall radio occultation dataset used in weather and climate applications.</p> <p>Since mid-2019 rising occultations from GF1 are available while setting radio occultations from GF2 are still disabled. After several on-board software updates and raw data reader improvements about 280 daily GF1 radio occultations are available since March 2020.</p> <p>Currently GF1 radio occultation data are processed on the basis of different measured variables: For different GPS satellites a combination of L1CA/L2P, L1CA/L2C, or L1CA/L5 is available.</p> <p>In this study first results of GF1 processing are presented. Refractivity and temperature data up to an altitude of 60 km will be compared with ECMWF operational analyses and the quality of the different measured variables will be evaluated.</p>
