Scientific paper

The SABER instrument on board the TIMED Satellite is a limb scanning infrared radiometer designed to measure temperature and minor constituent vertical profiles and energetics parameters in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere. We applied an updated non-LTE model for the interpretation of the 6.3 micron H2O radiance measured by SABER. The obtained meridional and seasonal distributions of the H2O density in the mesosphere are discussed. The conditions for the mesospheric ice particle formation are estimated using the combination of SABER H2O and temperature (V1.07) profiles.
