Abstract

The vertical propagation of atmospheric tides and acoustic gravity waves and their corresponding travelling ionospheric disturbances play a crucial role in the transportation and balance of momentum and energy in the earth's atmosphere. The unique availability of both radar and lidar instrumentation at Arecibo can provide simultaneous access to the neutral density, temperature and wind perturbations induced by such wave activity at mesospheric and stratospheric altitudes.
