Solar Tides as Revealed by Measurements of Mesosphere Temperature by the MLS Experiment on UARS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Temperatures between 25 and 86 km measured by the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) experiment on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) are analyzed to delineate diurnal, semidiurnal, and terdiurnal tidal structures ...
Solar Semidiurnal Tide in the Dusty Atmosphere of Mars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vertical coupling due to the solar semidiurnal tide in Mars's atmosphere, and effects on zonal mean temperature and wind structures, are investigated using a numerical model. The model provides self-consistent solutions ...
Solar Diurnal Tide in the Thermosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The solar diurnal tide in the thermosphere excited by in situ absorption of EUV and UV solar radiation for equinox conditions is determined by numerically integrating the linearized tidal equations for a spherical, rotating, ...
Seasonal-Latitudinal Structure of the Diurnal Thermospheric Tide
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The seasonal-latitudinal structure of the diurnal thermospheric tide is investigated for minimum and maximum levels of solar activity by numerically solving the linearized inseparable tidal equations for a spherical, ...
