Polar mesosphere summer echoes (PMSE): Review of observations and current understanding

M Rapp, FJ Lübken - Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2004 - acp.copernicus.org
Polar mesosphere summer echoes (PMSE) are very strong radar echoes primarily studied in
the VHF wavelength range from altitudes close to the polar summer mesopause. Radar …
