Influence of parameterized small-scale gravity waves on the migrating diurnal tide in Earth's thermosphere

Erdal Yiğit, Alexander S. Medvedev

Effects of subgrid-scale gravity waves (GWs) on the diurnal migrating tides are investigated from the mesosphere to the upper thermosphere for September equinox conditions, using a…
