Seasonal Variation in Gravity Wave Momentum and Heat Fluxes in the Mesopause Region Observed by Sodium Lidar

Abstract: The seasonal variations in gravity wave (GW) vertical fluxes of zonal momentum and heat in the mesopause region are calculated using nearly 10 years (from 2012 to 2021) of temperature and wind observations by a narrowband sodium lidar located in Hefei, China (32°N, 117°E). Except in summer, the GW zonal momentum fluxes are mostly westward, with ∼80% contributed by the short‐period (10 min–1 hr) GWs, and anticorrelate with the eastward zonal wind. The mean westward zonal momentum fluxes in spring and winter are… Show more
