Scientific paper

The global structure of the temperature field at high latitudes (60°-80°) in the Northern and Southern hemispheres is examined using temperature data in the altitude range from 10 km to 90 km (from the upper troposphere to the upper mesosphere). The data are obtained from GPS radio occultation measurements by the COSMIC/Formosa-3 satellite constellation and the MLS-Aura satellite. The analysis has revealed strong large-scale planetary wave perturbations both in the stratosphere and mesosphere at high- latitudes. The source of these perturbations and their inter-annual variability and inter-hemispheric coupling is investigated and discussed.
