Nonlinear forcing mechanisms of the migrating terdiurnal solar tide and their impact on the zonal mean circulation [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2019 We investigate the forcing mechanisms of the terdiurnal solar tide in the middle atmosphere using a mechanistic global circulation model. In order to quantify their individual contributions, we perform several model experiments and separate each forcing ...

Dynamics of the upper atmosphere
Atmospheric Environment (1967), 1982 The earth's upper atmosphere is highly dynamic, receiving strong energy inputs both from below in the form of upward propagating waves and from above in the form of electromagnetic and particle radiation from the sun and magnetosphere. Above 100 km the dynamics become increasingly influenced by factors that are of minor importance in the lower ...

Stratospheric dynamics modulates ozone layer response to molecular oxygen variations
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Photolysis of molecular oxygen (O2) sustains the stratospheric ozone layer and is thereby protecting living organisms on Earth by absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation.

Excitation of equatorial Kelvin and Yanai waves by tropical cyclones in an ocean general circulation model [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2013 Tropical cyclones (TCs) actively contribute to the dynamics of Earth's coupled climate system. They influence oceanic mixing rates, upper-ocean heat content, and air–sea fluxes, with implications for atmosphere and ocean dynamics on multiple spatial and ...

Experimental modeling of atmospheric discharge phenomena and charged dust particle interactions
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesThe upper atmosphere, comprising the mesosphere and thermosphere, is intricately influenced by various atmospheric and magnetospheric impacts. Various atmospheric waves excited in the troposphere can propagate into the mesosphere-thermosphere (M-T ...
