Scientific paper

We used ground-based mesospheric and lower thermospheric (MLT) neutral wind instruments (Fabry-Perot interferometer and meteor radar) and spaceborne FPI to study northern high latitude (75N) tides. The ground based instruments are located at same latitudes and different longitudes. The FPI at Resolute, Canada (74.68N, 94.87W) measures the neutral winds at 87 km (OH emission) and 97 km (O emission) and meteor radar at Bear Island, Norway (74.44N, 19.08 E) measures neutral winds from 78 to 108 km with varying degree coverage. The ground based instruments provide coverage for all local times. The two stations have large longitudinal difference to allow determination of zonal wavenumber of the dominant tide. The TIMED TIDI instrument provides neutral winds from 80 to 110 km globally. The TIMED TIDI instrument, however, has limited local time coverage of 15 longitudes during a day. Hence, it requires a long period (60 days) to accumulate all 24 hour local times coverage. We intend to combine these two types of measurement to study both short term and long term variations of the MLT tide in the high latitudes.
