This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will investigate a proprietary method of measuring atmospheric temperature starting at 10 meters above the surface. Our concept, if successful, will overcome the current Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS) low altitude and temperature resolution limits. The temperature measurement accuracy will be increased by at least a factor of two. This system will support research by providing a continuous low altitude temperature profile for a better understanding of the atmosphere and improved weather prediction. Localized weather forecasts are particularly important for airports predicting fog, air quality control, controlled burns of grasslands and forests, and uncontrolled forest fires. The ability to predict the behavior of the smoke emanating from these fires is important since it is a threat to many segments of the population.Results from this research could provide accurate low altitude temperature profiles to businesses that need local weather data (airports, fire departments, television and radio stations, air quality control, and disaster management of nuclear or chemical mishaps, etc.).

这个小型企业创新研究 (SBIR) 第一阶段项目将研究一种从地表以上 10 米处开始测量大气温度的专有方法。我们的概念如果成功，将克服当前无线电声学探测系统（RASS）的低海拔和温度分辨率限制。温度测量精度将提高至少两倍。该系统将通过提供连续的低海拔温度剖面来支持研究，以更好地了解大气并改进天气预报。本地化天气预报对于机场预测大雾、空气质量控制、草原和森林受控燃烧以及不受控制的森林火灾尤为重要。预测这些火灾产生的烟雾的行为非常重要，因为它对许多人群构成威胁。这项研究的结果可以为需要当地天气数据的企业（机场、消防部门、电视和广播电台、空气质量控制以及核或化学事故的灾害管理等）提供准确的低海拔温度剖面。
