Atomic Oxygen Database for Models

Abstract

The object of this research was to develop an analytically represented empirical database of terrestrial atmospheric atomic oxygen abundance, O(3-P), at an altitude of 95 km. This final report summarizes the research findings and also discusses scientific issues related to the climatological variability as a guide for the proper use of the current analytical representation of the UARS 95 km O(3-P) database. The results are provided to guide the Spill Model Integrated Product Team (SMIPT) effort that aims to develop a detailed model of trail radiance from fuel vents due to reactions with atmospheric atomic oxygen.
