Instabilities, Dynamics, and Energetics accompanying Atmospheric Layering (IDEAL) Campaign: High-Resolution in situ Observations above the Nocturnal Boundary Layer
Abhiram Doddi,Dale Lawrence,David C. Fritts,Ling Wang,Thomas S. Lund,William O. J. Brown,Dragan Zajic,Lakshmi Kantha +7 more
TL;DR: The Instabilities, Dynamics, and Energetics accompanying Atmospheric Layering (IDEAL) project as discussed by the authors employed a synergistic combination of targeted multi-point observations using small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) guiding direct numerical simulation (DNS) modeling to characterize the dynamics driving the S&L structures and associated flow features.

Airborne coherent wind lidar measurements of the momentum flux profile from orographically induced gravity waves
TL;DR: In this paper , the results of the GW-LCYCLE II campaign, conducted in Jan/Feb 2016 from Kiruna, Sweden, coherent Doppler wind lidar measurements were performed from the DLR Falcon aircraft to investigate gravity waves induced by flow across the Scandinavian Alps.
Evidence of Gravity Wave Saturation and Local Turbulence Production in the Summer Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere during the STATE (Structure and Atmospheric Turbulence Environment) Experiment
TL;DR: The wave field near the summer mesopause is composed of a superposition of wave motions which act collectively to produce regions in which the wave field is convectively or dynamically unstable as mentioned in this paper.
