Abstract
⺠The lunar semidiurnal tides in the MLT at Cachoeira Paulista were studied using meteor radar winds. ⺠Composite lunar day showed phase gradient consistent with an upward-propagating wave. ⺠Most of the year, mean northward wind amplitudes, over all heights, were larger than eastward. ⺠Mean eastward wind phases lead the northward, indicating characteristic of the Southern Hemisphere. ⺠Vertical wavelengths were long, but during the winter they were around few tens of kilometers.
