Zusammenfassung |
Recent investigations of atmospheric gravity
waves (AGW) and travelling ionospheric disturbances (TID) in the Earth\'s
thermosphere and ionosphere are reviewed. In the past decade, the generation of
gravity waves at high latitudes and their subsequent propagation to low
latitudes have been studied by several global model simulations and coordinated
observation campaigns such as the Worldwide Atmospheric Gravity-wave Study
(WAGS), the results are presented in the first part of the review. The second
part describes the progress towards understanding the AGW/TID characteristics.
It points to the AGW/TID relationship which has been recently revealed with the
aid of model-data comparisons and by the application of new inversion
techniques. We describe the morphology and climatology of gravity waves and
their ionospheric manifestations, TIDs, from numerous new observations. |
