The paper reports on some correlative features of two sets of space-based atmospheric measurements which are globally distributed with good statistical coverage. One set of data, pertaining to tropospheric processes, is lightning occurrence frequency derived from measurements aboard the DMSP satellite. The second set of data, pertaining to thermospheric processes, is the occurrence frequency of wavelike structures in neutral atmospheric density profiles derived from measurements aboard AE-C and AE-D. A significant correlation was found between the occurrence patterns of dawn lightning, which is indicative of massive long-lived tropospheric convective activity, and the occurrence patterns of wavelike structures in the thermosphere.
