The mass density of Earth's thermosphere (∼ 90–600 km altitude) is a critical parameter for
low Earth orbit prediction because of the atmospheric drag on satellites in this region. In this …

This brief introductory review of some recent developments in atmosphere–ionosphere
science is written for the “Vertical Coupling Special Issue” that is motivated by the 5th …

The dynamical and thermodynamical importance of gravity waves was initially recognized in
the atmosphere of Earth. Extensive studies over recent decades demonstrated that gravity …

First high‐altitude observations of gravity wave (GW)‐induced CO2 density perturbations in
the Martian thermosphere retrieved from NASA's Neutral Gas Ion Mass Spectrometer …

Abstract Version 5 (v05) of the thermospheric wind data from the Michelson Interferometer
for Global High‐resolution Thermospheric Imaging (MIGHTI) instrument on the Ionospheric …

A strong mountain wave, observed over Central Europe on 12 January 2016, is simulated in
2D under two fixed background wind conditions representing opposite tidal phases. The aim …

This paper describes a simple method for characterizing global-scale waves in the
mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT), such as tides and traveling planetary waves …

Gravity waves have a significant impact on both the dynamics and energy budget of the
Martian thermosphere. Strong density variations of spatial scales indicative of gravity waves …

Wavelike perturbations in the Martian upper thermosphere observed by the Neutral Gas Ion
Mass Spectrometer (NGIMS) onboard the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN …

Gravity waves in Mars's atmosphere strongly affect the general circulation as well as middle
atmospheric cloud formation, but the climatology and sources of gravity waves in the lower …
