Development of ground and space based instrumentation for middle and upper atmospheric studies
… to investigate the use of a high power-aperture Rayleigh lidar to measure neutral density and temperature in the upper atmosphere, into the lower thermosphere (>90 km). The scientific interest with this system is to obtain measurements of atmospheric tides, planetary and gravity wave amplitudes …

Theory and Observations of Horizontal and Vertical Structure of Gravity Wave Perturbations in the Middle Atmosphere
… were inferred from $\sim$45 h of airborne Na/Rayleigh lidar observations in the vicinity of Hawaii. Density variances, vertical shear variances, Richardson's numbers, characteristic vertical and horizontal wave numbers, and power law slopes of the vertical and horizontal wave number spectra …

Studies of gravity wave and thermal tide and their interactions in the middle atmosphere
… by a resonance sodium (Na) wind/temperature lidar in Maui (20.7 N, 156.3 W) and temperature measurement by a Rayleigh lidar at Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO, 19.5 N, 155.6 W), HI, are used as a case study of the GW propagation from the lower stratosphere to the lower thermosphere (35-103 km). A …
