Discovery of two distinct types of equatorial 150 km radar echoes

JL Chau, E Kudeki - Geophysical Research Letters, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
We show here that VHF signals scattered from the 150 km region above Jicamaca exhibit
two distinct types of features. In one type (type A), the Doppler spectral width increases with …

High-resolution observations of mesospheric layers with the Jicamarca VHF radar

GA Lehmacher, L Guo, E Kudeki, PM Reyes… - Advances in Space …, 2007 - Elsevier
We report new results from the 50-MHz Jicamarca radar in Peru (12° S, 77° W), which is
able to observe backscatter from the daytime mesosphere on any given day. Since 2005, the …

Radar cross sections for mesospheric echoes at Jicamarca

GA Lehmacher, E Kudeki, A Akgiray… - Annales …, 2009 - angeo.copernicus.org
Radar cross sections (RCS) of mesospheric layers at 50 MHz observed at Jicamarca, Peru,
range from 10− 18 to 10− 16 m− 1, three orders of magnitudes smaller than cross sections …

Mesospheric wind estimation with the Jicamarca MST radar using spectral mainlobe identification

K Lee, E Kudeki, PM Reyes, GA Lehmacher… - Radio …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract MST (mesosphere, stratosphere, troposphere) radar observations at Jicamarca use
four antenna beams, one vertical, others tilted to the east, west, and south, to detect the …

Solar flare effects observed over Jicamarca during MST-ISR experiments

P Reyes - 2012 - ideals.illinois.edu
A study of solar flare effects observed at the Jicamarca Radio Observatory (JRO) will be
presented. The observations were made while the Jicamarca radar was conducting …
