“…On the other hand, as Stegman and Murtagh (1988) and Murtagh et al (1990) have recently shown, the green line intensity can vary from 30 to 400 R; thus, both of our profiles fall within the range of previous observations. The profile on Flight 2 peaks at the same altitude as the Herzberg profile and 1.5 km higher than the atmospheric band profile measured on the same flight ; again, this is similar to previous observations .…”

“…Values for all these parameters were taken from Table 1 of Murtagh et al (1990). Values for the number densities of NZ, O2 and the temperat~e T were taken from the MSIS-86 empirical model.…”

“…Airglow OH and O 2 emissions provide useful information on the variation of the hydrogen-oxygen chemistry and the temperature field. Since the OH emission layer is normally located at around 87 km (Baker and Stair, 1988) and O 2 (0-1) band emission layer at 94 km (Murtagh et al, 1990), simultaneous measurement of the two emissions leads us to investigate the vertical wave propagation feature of gravity and tidal waves. For this purpose, Krassovsky's parameter "η", a ratio of the amplitude of temporal variation of the emission rate and the associated rotational temperature, has been used (Krassovsky, 1972;Taori and Taylor, 2006).…”
