Scientific paper

High-resolution Fabry-Perot spectrometer observations of mesospheric airglow emissions are reviewed. Difficulties in determining the Fabry-Perot instrument profile at the wavelength of observation are discussed and the uncertainties which these introduce into mesospheric temperature measurements are estimated. Improving calibration techniques will enable better determination of mesospheric temperatures and hence long-term studies of climate change. Temperature variations of 10-15 K are expected in the mesosphere over a number of years. Mesospheric wind measurements are also discussed.
