August 2004 - July 2010 mean zonal prevailing winds over Collm.
June-August 2007 FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC relative Es layer occurrence (in 1/1000), for a latitude range from 50°-55°N (colour scaling). In the lower part July mean wind shears, given in m/s/km, measured with the Collm meteor radar are shown as isolines. Negative shear values are hatched. Added are SDT phases of Es layer occurrence (open symbols) and wind shear (solid symbols, phase is defined as time of minimum shear).
Example of meteor velocities over Collm.

Seasonal change of daily mean temperatures in
the mesopause region derived from Collm meteor radar measurements compared
with the zonal mean temperatures from the SABER data and monthly means from
the COMMA-model. The light grey lines show the statistical error of the radar
(G. Stober, EGU 2006 Assembly).
