Study of the tidal variations in mesospheric temperature at low and mid latitudes from WINDII and potassium lidar observations

Zonal mean daytime temperatures from the Wind Imaging Interferometer (WINDII) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) and nightly temperatures from a potassium (K) lidar are employed in the study of the tidal variations in mesospheric temperature at low and mid latitudes in the Norther...
