| Publication method | You can download OH airglow spectral data in (3,1) band obtained by NIRAS observation at http://polaris.nipr.ac.jp/~niras/index.html#!data.md In addition to airglow emissions in OH (3,1) band, we also have spectral data of other OH Meinel band system ((4,1), (5,2), (6,3), (7,4), (8,5), and (4,2) bands), O2 atmospheric band at 1.27 microns, and aurora emissions (N2 1st Positive band and N2+ Meinel band). If you have interests in such spectral data mentioned above, they can be provided based on a collaborative study. Please contact the Principal Investigator. |

| Data Policy | Please contact the Principal Investigator of this project (nishiyama.takanori [at] nipr.ac.jp) before using the data at any publications and/or presentations. We welcome collaborative research and strongly recommend users to contact us early in order to ensure that the data are suitable for their research. When the data are used at any publications and/or presentations, we would like to ask the users to acknowledge NIPR and send us the PDF files of the publications and/or presentations. An example of the acknowledgement statement is as follows: 'OH spectrum data were provided by National Institute of Polar Research, Japan. This observation at Syowa Station was supported by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS), Grants‐in‐Aid for Young Scientists (A) 17H04857 and the Research Program of Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE) of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology of Japan (MEXT).' |
