On the nature of the seasonal change in the influence of the atmosphere on satellite remote measurements

Department of Higher Geodesy and Astronomy of Lviv Polytechnic National University

The change seasonal character of correction values calculated for the laser range according to the formula Marini-Murrey and for the radio range according to the formula Saastamoinen was compared. It was concluded that corrections calculated for the radio range have more seasonal character of changes and those for laser range depend mostly upon the meanings of the surface atmospheric pressure.
