Planetary Wave Activity Observed in Polar Mesospheric Clouds
… the Solar Backscatter UV spectrometer (SBUV) Polar Mesospheric Cloud (PMC) dataset was investigated for planetary wave activity following the earlier study by <em>Merkel </em>[2002]. To counter the sparse nature of the data, four separate methods of analysis are used in determining if …

The Influence of Obliquely Propagating Monsoon Gravity Waves on the Polar Summer Mesosphere
… low-latitude tropospheric source and towards the polar summer mesosphere. Their dissipation in this atmospheric region plays an important role in the global dynamical structure of the middle atmosphere and yet, the oblique propagation of gravity waves is not included in the present global models. …

Understanding Uncertainties for Polar Mesospheric Cloud Retrievals and Initial Gravity Wave Observations in the Stratopause from the Cloud Imaging and Particle Size Instrument
… approximately 50 km and sunlight scattered from Polar Mesospheric Clouds (PMC) which occur in the summer mesosphere at 83 km. The goal of the CIPS instrument is to retrieve high horizontal resolution maps of PMC albedo and the mode radius of the particle size distribution. The first manuscript …
