Ground-based optical detection of atmospheric waves in the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere.

Internal waves and atmospheric tides, which propagate into the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere, are the natural response of the atmosphere to perturbations such as cumulus convection, flow over topography, and solar heating. Seasonal and local time trends have been studied by observing the t...
