TL;DR: The Horizontal Wind Model (HWM07) as mentioned in this paper provides a statistical representation of the horizontal wind fields of the Earth's atmosphere from the ground to the exosphere (0-500 km).
Journal ArticleDOI
The high-resolution Doppler imager on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite
Paul B. Hays,Vincent J. Abreu,Michael E. Dobbs,David A. Gell,Heinz J. Grassl,Wilbert R. Skinner +5 more
TL;DR: The high-resolution Doppler imager (HRDI) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite is a triple-etalon Fabry-Perot interferometer designed to measure winds in the stratosphere, mesosphere, and lower thermosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term variability in the solar diurnal tide observed by HRDI and simulated by the GSWM
TL;DR: The global scale wave model (GSWM) as mentioned in this paper represents the first numerical modeling attempt at simulating this seasonal variability, and a preliminary comparison of the GSWM tidal results with HRDI measurements is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations of the 5-day wave in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere
TL;DR: The 5-day planetary wave has been detected in the winds measured by the High Resolution Doppler Imager (HRDI) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (50-110 kin) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term variability in the equatorial middle atmosphere zonal wind
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the high resolution Doppler imager (HRDI) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) has provided measurements of the horizontal wind field in the stratosphere, mesosphere, and lower thermosphere since November 1991.
