Variability and predictability of the space environment as related to lower atmosphere forcing (2016, background): “For global coverage of GWs, analyses of satellite observations have provided increasingly comprehensive information on the global distribution and seasonal variation of GWs, including their energy density and absolute momentum flux, from the stratosphere to the lower thermosphere [Fetzer and Gille, ”
Internal gravity waves from atmospheric jets and fronts (2014, methodology): “314 Wu and Waters [1996] are one of the first to estimate global activity of gravity waves, 315 using MLS (Microwave Limb Sounder) observations.”
Interaction of gravity waves with the QBO: A satellite perspective (2014, background): “…of gravity waves from satellites are difficult because of the short horizontal scales of those waves, several studies show that gravity wave activity in the tropics is modulated by the QBO [e.g., de la Torre et al., 2006; Krebsbach and Preusse, 2007; Ern et al., 2008; Wu and Eckermann, 2008].”
Global Ray Tracing Simulations of the SABER Gravity Wave Climatology (2009, background): “These are all features well known from GW temperature variances extracted from a number of different satellite instruments [Wu and Waters, 1997; Ern et al., 2004, 2006; de la Torre et al., 2006; Wu and Eckermann, 2008].”
