“…Many previous works have reported the observations of 8 h tide in the MLT region (for example, Glass and Fellons, 1975;Teitelbaum et al, 1989;Oznovich et al, 1995Oznovich et al, , 1997Thayaparan, 1997;Taylor et al, 1999;Smith, 2000;Younger et al, 2002;Taori et al, 2005;Wu et al, 2005;Beldon et al, 2006;Jiang et al, 2009;Rao et al, 2011). Glass and Fellons (1975) and Teitelbaum et al (1989) suggested that this wave can be interpreted both as the solar driven terdiurnal tide and as the result of nonlinear interaction between diurnal and semi-diurnal tides. Oznovich et al (1995Oznovich et al ( , 1997 observed the prominent terdiurnal oscillations in OH intensity and temperature over Eureka, Nunavut (80 • N), Canada.…”

The nocturnal behaviour of OI 557.7 nm intensity and a comparative study with simultaneous OH Meinel band temperature measurements has been presented. OI 557.7 nm intensity and OH temperature variations covary on many occasions. It was found that an 8 h tide characterizes the variation of intensity and temperature on most nights, and especially during the month of January. This is the first report of prolonged measurements of OI 557.7 nm emission from India.

“…The terdiurnal tide generally reaches smaller amplitudes, but can nevertheless be significant (e.g. Teitelbaum et al, 1989;Younger et al, 2002;Du and Ward, 2010).…”

The diurnal zonal vertical wavelengths are similar to the meridional, except for the winter months when the zonal vertical wavelengths are much longer, occasionally exceeding 100 km. Semidiurnal amplitudes are observed to be significantly smaller than diurnal amplitudes. Semidiurnal vertical wavelengths range from 20 to more than 100 km. Our observations of tidal amplitudes and phases are compared with the predictions of the extended Canadian Middle Atmosphere Model (eCMAM) and the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM). Both eCMAM and WACCM reproduce the trend for greater diurnal amplitudes in the meridional component than the zonal. However, eCMAM tends to overestimate meridional amplitudes, while WACCM underestimates both zonal and meridional amplitudes. Vertical wavelength predictions are generally good for both models; however, eCMAM predicts shorter diurnal zonal vertical wavelengths than are observed in winter, while WACCM predicts longer zonal vertical wavelengths than observed for the semidiurnal tide for most months. Semidiurnal amplitude predictions are generally good for both models. It is found that larger-than-average diurnal and semidiurnal tidal amplitudes occur when the stratospheric quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) at 10 hPa is eastwards, and smaller-than-average amplitudes occur when it is westwards. Correlations between the amplitude perturbations and the El Niño Southern Oscillation are also found. The precise mechanism for these correlations remains unclear.

Abstract. This paper presents the thermal forcing of the semidiurnal, terdiurnal, and 6-h components of the migrating tide induced by ozone heating in stratosphere and lower mesosphere. The heating as a function of local time is determined from the global ozone observed by the Microwave Limb Sounder on the Aura satellite. The harmonic components of the heating rates of the semidiurnal, terdiurnal and the 6-h periodicities are calculated using the Strobel/Zhu parameterized model and then decomposed into Hough modes. Seasonal variations of each harmonic component and its Hough modes are presented. For all three tidal components, the majority of the annual mean O 3 heating projects onto symmetric modes. The semiannual variation is a prominent signal in almost all of the symmetric Hough modes near the stratopause. The strongest annual variation takes place in the asymmetric modes. The results also show that, during the solstice season, the maximum forcing of the diurnal and terdiurnal component occurs in the summer hemisphere while the maximum forcing of the semidiurnal and 6-h components occurs in the winter hemisphere. The global mean ozone density and the tidal components of the ozone heating rate are different between December-January and June-July. The asymmetry in the heating is primarily due to the 6.6 % annual variation in the solar energy input into the Earth's atmosphere due to the annual variation of the Sun-Earth distance.
