Abstract:Observational data sets for the high latitude middle atmosphere are key to understand the dynamics over those latitudes and the coupling between the lower and middle atmosphere. Utilizing long‐term data sets from an all‐sky imager at Tromsø, Norway (69.6°N, 19.2°E), the characteristics of 18 mesospheric frontal events in the Arctic winter mesosphere from 2011 to 2015 were studied. These frontal events exhibit horizontal extensions exceeding 500 km and were characterized by a sharp leading front, sometimes foll… Show more
