TL;DR: In this article, the authors simulate space-based, sub-limb viewing observations of airglow brightness fluctuations caused by atmospheric gravity wave interactions with the O2 atmospheric air glow, and demonstrate that the brightness fluctuations observed for the optically thick 0-0 band emission will always appear stronger for waves traveling towards the observer (satellite).

TL;DR: An investigation on the propagation of underground-explosion-generated infrasonic waves is carried out via numerical simulations of the equations of fluid dynamics in order to take into account the effects of vibrational relaxation phenomena.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate gravity-wave-induced variations in exothermic heating in the OH nightglow region at a latitude of 18° in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres during March.

TL;DR: In this paper, a full wave model and a WKB-type model were combined with a chemical-airglow fluctuation model to assess the strength of wave reflection and also to explicitly calculate the phase difference between the airglow brightness and the temperature fluctuations.

TL;DR: In this article, a 2D nonlinear model was proposed to explain the observations of tsunamigenic traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) associated with the 2011 Tohoku event, where wave sources were modeled as triads of nonlinearly interacting oceanic gravity waves, whose wave parameters satisfy resonant conditions.
