Zusammenfassung |
Atmospheric gravity waves, detected over
Kiruna (67.8°N, 20.4°E) during geomagnetic storms, are presented and analysed.
The data include direct measurements of the OI 630.0 nm emission line intensity,
the x-component of the local geomagnetic field and thermospheric (meridional
and zonal) wind velocities derived from the OI 630.0 nm Doppler shift observed
with an imaging Fabry-Perot interferometer (IFPI). A low pass band filter
technique was used to determine short-period variations in the thermospheric
meridional wind velocities observed during geomagnetic storms. These
short-period variations in the meridional wind velocities, which are identified
as due to gravity waves, are compared to the corresponding variations observed
in the OI 630.0 nm emission line intensity, x-component of the local
geomagnetic field and the location of the auroral electrojet. A
cross-correlation analysis was used to calculate the propagation velocities of
the observed gravity waves. |
