چکیده انگلیسی
Densities derived from accelerometer measurements on the GRACE, CHAMP, and Air Force/SETA satellites near 490, 390, and 220Â km, respectively, are used to elucidate global-scale characteristics of traveling atmospheric disturbances (TADs). Several characteristics elucidated in numerical simulations are confirmed in this study, namely: (1) propagation speeds increase from the lower thermosphere to the upper thermosphere; (2) propagation to the equator and even into the opposite hemisphere can occur; (3) greater attenuation of TADs occurs during daytime and at higher levels of solar activity (i.e., more wave activity during nighttime and solar minimum), presumably due to the greater influence of ion drag. In addition, we find that the occurrence of significant TAD activity emanating from the auroral regions does not reflect a clear relation with the level of planetary magnetic activity as measured by Kp. There is also evidence of waves originating in the tropics, presumably due to convective sources; to some extent this may contribute to the Kp and solar flux relationships noted above. Further elucidation of local time, season, and altitude dependences of TAD propagation characteristics may be forthcoming from density measurements from the GOCE and Swarm missions.
