Energy Conservation in the Cooling and Contracting Upper Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere
Abstract Time series of radiative cooling of the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere (UMLT) by carbon dioxide (CO2) are examined for evidence of trends over 20 years. Radiative cooling rates in K day−1 provided by the SABER instrument are converted to time series of infrared power radiated from...
