Optical Mesosphere Thermosphere Imagers (OMTI) Airglow Temperature Photometer at Rikubetsu, Japan

ResourceID
spase://IUGONET/Instrument/ISEE/OMTI/RIK/ATP03

Description

The Airglow Temperature Photometer (ATP, #3) settled at Rikubetsu, which is a part of the Optical Mesosphere Thermosphere Imagers (OMTIs), measures airglow intensities and rotational temperatures of OH and O2 at the zenith of the sky. It also measures OI (557.7 nm, 630.0 nm, 777.4 nm) lines and Na line intensities in every 5.5 minutes, and 427.8 nm and 486.1 nm line intensities in every 32.5 minutes. The observed period at Rikubetsu for Mar.2004-Oct.2008, and from June 2010 till present. The OMTIs were developed at the Institute for Space-Earth Environmental Research, Nagoya University, in order to investigate the dynamics of the upper atmosphere through nocturnal airglow emissions.
