DIURNAL AND SEMI-DIURNAL TEMPERATURE VARIABILITY OF THE MIDDLE ATMOSPHERE, AS OBSERVED BY ISAMS
Some preliminary results are presented showing that the ISAMS instrument on board the UARS satellite has detected sun-synchronous variations in atmospheric temperature between 15-80 km altitude. These are interpreted as the westward-migrating diurnal and semi-diurnal tides. Zonal mean maps of the am...
