Since June 1991, Rayleigh lidar measurements at York University are being carried out on a continuous basis (every clear night). The goal is to understand the properties of gravity waves and their effects on thermal structure in the mesosphere and upper stratosphere. This involves detailed study of: propagation of individual waves, interactions amongst gravity waves, gravity wave spectra, general wave characteristics as a function of altitude, the relationship between gravity waves and disturbances in thermal structure, and a developing climatology.
