A study is undertaken of the resolution of tidal and planetary waves,using an already existing network of meteor radar stations in the U.K. and Italy. The timing of the recording sessions was arranged so that the quasi-two-day wave could be studied in more detail, in order to distinguish individual modes at nearly-two-day periods. While the present observations show the mean tidal pattern to agree with the predicted main solar tide, the phase and amplitude variations do not correlate with longer period wave activity, and are tentatively attributed to the presence of nonsolar tides generated at lower altitudes through the interaction of the primary solar semidiurnal tide and travelling, or quasi-steady, atmospheric structures such as those suggested by Bernard (1981).
