Scientific paper

Recent progress in the study of middle atmosphere tides is reviewed. Specific areas where recent progress has occurred include: development of more realistic thermal excitation and numerical simulation models; the role of tides in accelerating and heating the mean flow at the base of the thermosphere; observational efforts which delineate average seasonal, latitudinal and vertical structures of tides, and shorter-term variations of tides about these values; theoretical and observational studies concerning the importance of non-migrating tidal components; and the effects of tides on minor constituent concentrations in the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere. A summary of key problems to be addressed in the future is given.
