The Weber sodium lidar at the Artic Lidar Observatory for Middle Atmosphere Research (ALOMAR) near the Andoya Rocket Range in Norway (69N, 16E) has made measurements of the temperature and radial wind profiles near the mesopause for 750 hours over 105 days between 2000 and 2006. These measurements were made during both night and day with data campaigns occurring in all months of the year. The altitude range was approximately 80 to 105 km in winter and 85 to 97 km in summer. We will present the seasonal variation of the daily mean temperature profiles and compare to previous falling sphere and lidar measurements at the same site. We will also show a preliminary calculation of temperature amplitudes, phases, and variability of the semidiurnal and diurnal tides.
