Scientific paper

This paper presents thermospheric tidal winds from the Climatological Tidal Model of the Thermosphere (CTMT) and discusses inter-annual tidal variability due to (i) variations in the solar flux and (ii) variations in the tropospheric tidal forcing. CTMT is based on TIMED satellite tidal diagnostics in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere region and empirically extends upward propagating tides into the upper thermosphere for moderate (F10.7=110 sfu) solar flux conditions using Hough Mode Extensions. The approach is now followed-on by including solar flux variations for selected tidal components and by investigating the effects of tidal forcing variations due to the ElNiño/Southern Oscillation. The latter is guided by an analysis of latent and radiative heating rates from the TRMM satellite and MERRA reanalysis, respectively.
