Upper atmosphere tidal oscillations due to latent heat release in the tropical troposphere
Latent heat release associated with tropical deep convective activity is investigated as a source for migrating (sun-synchronous) diurnal and semidiurnal tidal oscillations in the 80±150-km height region. Satellite-based cloud brightness temperature measurements made between 1988 and 1994 and averaged into 3-h bins are used to determine the annualand longitude-average local-time distribution of...
متن کاملQuadrantids and the lunar Na atmosphere
Enhancements of the Na emission and temperature from the lunar atmosphere were reported during the Leonids meteor showers of 1995, 1997 and 1998. Here we report a search for similar enhancement during the 1999 Quadrantids, which have the highest mass flux of any of the major streams. No enhancements were detected. We suggest that different chemical-physical properties of the Leonid and Quadrant...
متن کاملThe coupling of winds, aerosols and chemistry in Titan's atmosphere.
The atmosphere of Titan is a complex system, where thermal structure, radiative transfer, dynamics, microphysics and photochemistry are strongly coupled together. The global climate model developed over the past 15 years at the Pierre-Simon Laplace Institute has been exploring these different couplings, and has demonstrated how they can help to interpret the observed atmospheric structure of Ti...
متن کاملTrends in MLT region winds and planetary waves , Collm ( 52 ◦ N , 15 ◦ E )
Long-period oscillations in the period range 2– 30 days, interpreted as planetary wave (PW) signatures, have been analysed using daily mesosphere/lower thermosphere wind measurements near 90 km over Collm (52 N, 15 E) in the time interval 1980–2005. Interannual and interdecadal variability of PW are found. Since the 1990s, a tendency for larger zonal amplitudes compared to meridional ones has b...
متن کاملVariability in the altitude of fast upper tropospheric winds over the Northern Hemisphere during winter
[1] The surface of maximum wind (SMW) is used as a frame for examining spatial and temporal variability in the vertical position of fast upper tropospheric winds over the Northern Hemisphere during winter. At a given observation time in a gridded data set, the SMW is defined as the surface passing through the fastest analyzed wind above each grid node, with a vertical search domain restricted t...
