First measurements of tides in the stratosphere and lower mesosphere by ground-based Doppler microwave wind radiometry

<p>Atmospheric tides are important for vertical coupling in the atmosphere, from the stratosphere down to the troposphere and up to the thermosphere. They are planetary-scale gravity waves with well-known periods that are integer fractions of a day and can be observed in the temperature or win...
