Popis: | This paper presents combined model-data interpretation of the High Resolution Doppler Imager (HRDI) and Wind Imaging Interferometer (WINDII) wind, temperature and airglow data using the tuned mechanistic tidal model (TMTM) approach, including calculation of the nighttime oxygen emission rates induced by the simulated tides. This is the first demonstration of the consistency of the tidal signatures in the HRDI/WINDII temperature, airglow and wind observations in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT). This analysis gives increased confidence in these UARS measurements and also in our TMTM methodology. |
