Study of the Behavior of Ultrashort Radio-Wave Refraction in the Ten-Meter Layer of the Atmosphere Above the Underlying Surface Around Big Eravna Lakes
摘要
The ultrashort radio wave refraction in the troposphere depends on meteorological conditions. In the present study, an atmospheric-soil measuring complex is used to measure the meteorological parameters at altitudes of 1 and 10 m for three years (2015–2017), and refraction gradients are calculated at standard meteorological times. Monthly datasets are grouped depending on the time of day to illustrate their typical diurnal behavior. The obtained data sub-arrays are analyzed using descriptive statistics. The occurrence of super-refraction is observed in the second half of day at the lake coast during the summer period.
