“…Amplitude of the 8-h (terdiurnal) tide is also significant (e.g. Jiang et al, 2009). However, the tide amplitudes with periods equal to or less than 6 h are relatively small in some observations and not always found in analysis of time series (e.g.…”

winter are examined to reveal the effects of stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) in mid-low-latitude MLT region. The result shows that the MLT daily zonal wind over these two sites reversed from eastward wind to westward wind for several days during the SSW events. The reversals were almost coincident with the polar stratospheric temperature reaching its maximum at 10 hPa, 90 • N and were about ten days prior to the reversal of high latitude stratospheric zonal wind at 10 hPa, 60 • N. The temporal variations of tides, gravity waves and 2-day planetary waves in the mid-latitude MLT showed different behavior during the two SSW events. During the 2001 SSW event, MLT diurnal tide reached its maximum when the MLT zonal wind decreased rapidly and SSW event began in polar stratosphere; the activity of 2-day waves decreased after the onset of the 2001 SSW, while the gravity wave increased when the 2001 SSW developed into a major warming. However, in the 2009/2010 winter, the semidiurnal tide and 2-day wave in MLT over Langfang reached a peak about two days earlier than zonal wind reversal at 10 hPa, 60 • N; no significant features were found in diurnal tides, terdiurnal tides and gravity waves related to the 2010 SSW event.

“…The most important and conspicuous tidal components, i.e. diurnal (24 h), semidiurnal (12 h) and terdiurnal (8 h) have been studied extensively in the MLT using meteor radar, lidar, and satellite based instruments from various latitudes for the last couple of years by several investigators (Vincent et al, 1998;Jiang et al, 2009;Deepa et al, 2006;Friedman et al, 2009 and references therein).…”

“…Also Friedman et al (2009) studied the semidiurnal tidal feature over Maui and Puerto Rico (18.31N, 66.81W) and its longitudinal variability by analyzing thermal structure with lidar and TIMED/SABER temperature data of six months, although lidar continuous observations are possible in night time of maximum 12 h and TIMED/SABER performs 24 h coverage over a particular place in 60 days (yaw period). Signatures of the terdiurnal tide over Maui are studied very recently in a vivid manner by Jiang et al (2009) using meteor wind data at 80-100 km altitude. Detailed regular and exclusive study of the semidiurnal tide in the horizontal wind over this region is not performed yet.…”

“…This is the first report of terdiurnal tides observed in the nightglow measurements over the Indian subcontinent. 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.…”

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.
