Entry ID: NCAR_UPA

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: These data sets including model data correspond mostly to the upper
atmosphere between 80 and 1000 km and is archived at the National
Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). A detailed catalog of these
upper atmosphere data is available.

The Fabry-Perot Interferometer measures neutral gas temperature and
velocity. The altitude of measurement may not be known precisely (but
can be inferred with ... View entire text

ISO Topic Category
Quality Historic references of individuals located along South America coast and
offshore islands are opportunistic sightings. When the position ashore was not
reported it was estimated from digitalized maps. Positioned groups during the
breeding season are highly accurate, and belong to long term research on
southern elephant seals in Patagonia.
