Scientific paper

New opportunities for studying the upper atmosphere phenomena have become available after the launch of the satellite constellation FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC (F3/C), providing GPS radio occultation data which enables researchers to investigate the upper atmosphere globally in three-dimension. With more than 2500 soundings of the atmosphere every day, vertical electron density profiles in the ionosphere as well as temperature profiles in the stratosphere are available for the study of global ionospheric plasma structures and stratospheric temperature variations over the continents and the oceans, where ground-based observations are limited. In this talk, new results from our efforts in investigating several interesting phenomena in the upper atmosphere using the F3/COSMIC data will be presented. Future applications of the GPS radio occultation data will be discussed.
