Scientific paper

Temperature measurements from the SABER instrument on TIMED are used to investigate migrating and nonmigrating solar tides from -82 to +51 degrees latitude between about 50 and 100 km altitude during April-May, 2002. The most prominent nonmigrating tide oscillations include eastward-propagating diurnal tides near the equator and tropics, and semidiurnal tides with zonal wavenumbers s = 1 and s = 3 at higher latitudes. We also find evidence for an ultra-fast 3.5-day Kelvin wave. The Kyushu University General Circulation Model is utilized to assess our modeling capability and to serve as a framework for interpretation. Possible source mechanisms are also examined, including tide/tide and tide/planetary wave interactions, and tropospheric heat sources.
