Journal ArticleDOI
Wave mean flow interactions in the thermosphere induced by a major tsunami
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate how the dynamics of the thermosphere is influenced by the dissipation of a tsunami-driven gravity wave disturbance, which can efficiently propagate to the upper atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy transfer by gravity wave dissipation
K.D. Cole,Michael P. Hickey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the subject of the dissipation of internal gravity waves in the thermosphere and how this is related to propagation is discussed, and the ranges of waves for different source heights in these atmospheres are calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A full-wave model for a binary gas thermosphere: Effects of thermal conductivity and viscosity
TL;DR: In this article, the role of thermal conductivity, viscosity, and mutual diffusion on the wave-induced characteristics of both gases was examined in a two-gas (N2 and O) full wave model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secular variations of OI 5577 Å Airglow in the mesopause region induced by transient gravity wave packets
TL;DR: In this article, the authors employ a 2-dimensional, time-dependent, fully nonlinear model of minor species in the mesopause region and our Spectral Full-Wave Model to simulate the response of the minor species and the OI 5577 A airglow to a gravity wave packet in the mid-to-late mesophere region.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the latitudinal variations of the non-periodic response of minor species induced by a dissipative gravity-wave packet in the MLT region
Tai Yin Huang,Michael P. Hickey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a spectral full-wave model and a 2-dimensional (2-D) fully nonlinear chemistry model were used to investigate the latitudinal variations of the wave effects on the minor species in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere region.
