A remarkable correlation between short period gravity waves and semiannual oscillation of the zonal wind in the equatorial mesopause region
The variability of zonal winds and the horizontal wind velocity variance of short period (20–120 min) gravity waves (GWs) in the equatorial mesopause region are studied using medium frequency (MF) radar observations from Pameungpeuk (7.4° S, 107.4° E) during 2004–2010. The zonal winds display a...
