Variation of Venusian Gravity Wave Absolute Momentum Fluxes and Drag as Retrieved from the Akatsuki Mission
Erdal Yiğit, Emilia Sloan
Using temperature retrievals from Akatsuki radio occultation measurements, we characterize gravity wave activity as a function of vertical wavenumber and altitude and, for the firs…
Impact of Gravity Waves From Tropospheric and Non-tropospheric Sources on the Middle and Upper Atmosphere and Comparison with ICON/MIGHTI Winds
Erdal Yiğit, Alexander S. Medvedev, Ayden L. S. Gann +2
We study the dynamical and thermal roles of internal gravity waves generated in the troposphere and above using the Coupled Middle Atmosphere Thermosphere-2 General Circulation Mod…
Characterization of the Thermospheric Mean Winds and Circulation during Solstice using ICON/MIGHTI Observations
Erdal Yiğit, Manbharat Dhadly, Alexander S. Medvedev +4
Using the horizontal neutral wind observations from the MIGHTI instrument onboard NASA's ICON (Ionospheric Connection Explorer) spacecraft with continuous coverage, we determine th…
Martian Dust Storms and Gravity Waves: Disentangling Water Transport to the Upper Atmosphere
Dmitry S. Shaposhnikov, Alexander S. Medvedev, Alexander V. Rodin +2
Simulations with the Max Planck Institute Martian general circulation model for Martian years 28 and 34 reveal details of the water "pump" mechanism and the role of gravity wave (G…
Variations of the Martian Thermospheric Gravity Wave Activity during the Recent Solar Minimum as Observed by MAVEN
Erdal Yiğit, Alexander S. Medvedev, Paul Hartogh
Atmospheric gravity (buoyancy) waves (GWs) are of great importance for the energy and momentum budget of all planetary atmospheres. Propagating upward waves carry energy and moment…
Dust storm-enhanced gravity wave activity in the Martian thermosphere observed by MAVEN and implication for atmospheric escape
Erdal Yiğit, Alexander S. Medvedev, Mehdi Benna +1
Lower atmospheric global dust storms affect the small- and large-scale weather and variability of the whole Martian atmosphere. Analysis of the CO density data from the Neutral…
