“…Although there are a number of gravity-wave studies at high latitudes, most of these rely upon analyzing the wave structures induced by the waves in the night airglow (e.g., Taylor and Henriksen, 1989;Pautet et al, 2005;Nielsen et al, 2006Nielsen et al, , 2009Espy et al, 2004;, Suzuki et al, 20092013). However, these observations are not possible during the high latitude polar summer when the mesosphere remains sunlit.…”
