TL;DR: In this article, the HWM90 thermospheric wind model has been revised in the lower thermosphere and extended into the mesosphere, stratosphere and lower atmosphere to provide a single analytic model for calculating zonal and meridional wind profiles representative of the climatological average for various geophysical conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparisons between satellite-derived gradient winds and radar-derived winds from the CIRA-86
A. H. Manson,Chris Meek,E. L. Fleming,Sushil Chandra,Robert A. Vincent,A. Phillips,Susan K. Avery,Grahame J. Fraser,M. J. Smith,J.L. Fellous,M. Massebeuf +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the zonal and meridional wind contours in the 60-120 km region obtained from satellite radiance data were compared with radar-derived contours of winds obtained from the CIRA-1986 reference atmosphere.
Empirical wind model for the middle and lower atmosphere. Part 1: Local time average
TL;DR: The HWM90 model was extended in the lower thermosphere and extended into the mesosphere and lower atmosphere to provide a single analytic model for calculating zonal and meridional wind profiles representative of the climatological average for various geophysical conditions as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the COSPAR International Reference Atmosphere (CIRA) 1986 models show discrepancies, including: (1) no spring tongue of weak westward flow at latitudes 20-70 deg; (2) too strong an eastward flow, at 20-52 deg in summer; (3) too great reversal heights at 35-43 deg N in summer, and (4) strong (by a factor of 2) summer and winter jets at 65 -70 deg N.
