Diurnal nonmigrating tides from TIMED Doppler Interferometer wind data: Monthly climatologies and seasonal variations
TL;DR: In this paper, TIMED Doppler Interferometer (TIDI) measurements of zonal and meridional winds in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere are analyzed for diurnal nonmigrating tides (June 2002 to June 2005).

Mean winds and tides in the Arctic mesosphere and lower thermosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, a new radar has been deployed at Esrange (68°N, 21°E) near Kiruna in Sweden to measure winds and tides in the Arctic mesosphere/lower thermosphere region over the interval August 1999 to July 2000.

Extension of the MSIS Thermosphere Model into the middle and lower atmosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, the MSIS-86 empirical model has been extended into the mesosphere and lower atmosphere to provide a single analytic model for calculating temperature and density profiles representative of the climatological average for various geophysical conditions.
