Analysis of 24 years of mesopause region OH rotational temperature observations at Davis, Antarctica – Part 1: Long-term trends

The long term trend, solar cycle response and residual variability in 24 years of hydroxyl nightglow rotational temperatures above Davis Research Station, Antarctica (68° S, 78° E) is reported. Hydroxyl rotational temperatures are a layer-weighted proxy for kinetic temperatures near 87 km altitude a...
