Internal wave coupling processes in Earth’s atmosphere

Abstract: This paper presents a contemporary review of vertical coupling in the atmosphere and ionosphere system induced by internal waves of lower atmospheric origin. Atmospheric waves are primarily generated by meteorological processes, possess a broad range of spatial and temporal scales, and can propagate to the upper atmosphere. A brief summary of internal wave theory is given, focusing on gravity waves, solar tides, planetary Rossby and Kelvin waves. Observations of wave signatures in the upper atmosphere, their r… Show more

“…Method). Extension to the atmospheric applications can be found in (Torrence and Compo, 1998;Grinsted et al, 2004). To keep this paper consistent with the four above cited papers, we use the following acronyms CWT (Continuous Wavelet Transform) and WTC (Wavelet Transform Coherence).…”

“…Global and mid-latitude ionospheric responses to this event have also been repeatedly studied [Yue et al, 2010;Pancheva and Mukhtarov, 2011;Bessarab et al, 2012;Fagundes et al, 2015]. However, most papers have dealt with the response of the low-latitude ionosphere to the 2009 SSW event [Chau et al, 2010;Goncharenko et al, 2010b] and tried to explain reasons for this response [Goncharenko et al, 2010a;Chau et al, 2011;Fejer et al, 2011;Pedatella et al, 2015;Yiğit et al, 2015]. In order to assess the validity and importance of each of the proposed mechanisms of the observed morning enhancement of the equatorial ionization anomaly and the afternoon decrease in the electron density in the equatorial and low-latitude ionospheric regions during the 2009 SSW event, numerous scientific teams carried out theoretical research using global models of the middle and upper atmosphere, which represent the thermosphere-ionosphere system [Fuller-Rowell et al, 2010, 2011Liu et al, 2010Liu et al, , 2013Bessarab et al, 2012;Jin et al, 2012].…”
