Scientific paper

The TIMED Doppler Interferometer (TIDI) measures the global wind field in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere from the NASA Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics (TIMED) satellite. TIDI performs limb scans of airglow emissions through four telescopes simultaneously, and so can measure winds on both sides of the orbit track. Temperatures can also be inferred from these data. The primary measurements during TIMED early scientific operations are of the O2 atmospheric bands. We will describe how TIDI is designed and operated, how the data are analyzed, and present some preliminary wind measurements in the polar mesopause region.
