Methods of temperature measurement in a radio-acoustic tropospheric sounder
The temperature of the lower troposphere is inferred<br />by measuring with a doppler radar the speed of a powerful acoustic wave,<br />capable of periodically perturbing the index of refraction of air. Three<br />methods for performing these measurements ar...
