Abstract. To study the mesospheric temperature inversion, daily temperature profiles obtained from the Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE) aboard the Upper Atmospheric Research Satellite (UARS) during the period 1991-2001 over the Indian tropical region (0-30° N, 60-100° E) have been analyzed for the altitude range 34-86km. The frequency of occurrence of inversion is found to be 67% over this period, which shows a strong semiannual cycle, with a maximum occurring one month after equinoxes (May and November). Amplitude of inversion is found to be as high as 40K. Variation of monthly mean pea

Abstract:
Abstract. The mesosphere and lower-thermosphere (MLT) transitional region, encompassing a height range of 60–100 km, is a distinct and highly turbulent zone within Earth's atmosphere. The region is significant owing to dynamics of atmospheric processes like planetary, tidal, and particularly gravity waves, which contribute to the formation of the mesospheric inversion layer (MIL). Investigating these inversion phenomena is crucial for understanding the dynamics of the middle and upper atmosphere, especially regarding stability and energy transfer. These phenomena are associated with energy tra

Abstract:
The impact of a mesospheric temperature inversion on the vertical propagation of gravity waves has been investigated using OH airglow images and ground-based Rayleigh lidar measurements carried out in December 2017 at the Haute-Provence Observatory (OHP, France, 44N). These measurements provide complementary information that allows the vertical propagation of gravity waves to be followed. An intense mesospheric inversion layer (MIL) observed near 60 km of altitude with the lidar disappeared in the middle of the night, offering a unique opportunity to evaluate its impact on gravity wave (GW) pr

Abstract. Rayleigh and resonance lidar observations were made during the Turbopause experiment at Poker Flat Research Range, Chatanika Alaska (65° N, 147° W) over a 10 h period on the night of 17–18 February 2009. The lidar observations revealed the presence of a strong mesospheric inversion layer (MIL) at 74 km that formed during the observations and was present for over 6 h. The MIL had a maximum temperature of 251 K, amplitude of 27 ± 7 K, a depth of 3.0 km, and overlying lapse rate of 9.4 ± 0.3 K km−1. The MIL was located at the lower edge of the mesospheric sodium layer. During this coinc

Abstract. Large-scale spatial structures of mesospheric bores were observed by the Visible and near-Infrared Spectral Imager (VISI) of the ISS-IMAP mission (Ionosphere, Mesosphere, upper Atmosphere and Plasmasphere mapping mission from the International Space Station) in the mesospheric O2 airglow at 762 nm wavelength. Two mesospheric bore events in southern midlatitudes are reported in this paper: one event at 48–54∘ S, 10–20∘ E on 9 July 2015 and the other event at 35–43∘ S, 24∘ W–1∘ E on 7 May 2013.

Abstract. The Rayleigh lidar data collected on 119 nights from March 1998 to February 2000 were used to study the statistical characteristics of the low latitude mesospheric temperature inversion observed over Gadanki (13.5° N, 79.2° E), India. The occurrence frequency of the inversion showed semiannual variation with maxima in the equinoxes and minima in the summer and winter, which was quite different from that reported for the mid-latitudes. The peak of the inversion layer was found to be confined to the height range of 73 to 79 km with the maximum occurrence centered around 76 km, with a w

Abstract:
The Rayleigh lidar at National Atmospheric Research Laboratory, Gadanki (13.5°N, 79.2°E), India operates at 532 nm green laser with ~600 mJ/pulse since 2007. The vertical temperature profiles are derived above ~30 km by assuming the atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium and obeys ideal gas law. A large mesospheric inversion layer (MIL) is observed at ~77.4-84.6 km on the night of 22 March 2007 over Gadanki. Although dynamics and chemistry play vital role, both the mechanisms are compared for the occurrence of the MIL in the present study.

Abstract:
La moyenne atmosphère s'étend de 10 à 90 km et englobe à la fois la stratosphère (10 à 50 km) et la mésosphère (50 à 90 km). L'équilibre présent dans la moyenne atmosphère est le résultat de la propagation verticale d'ondes atmosphériques de petites et grandes échelles redistribuant le moment angulaire à travers l'atmosphère. Ces ondes perturbent notablement le flux moyen lorsqu'elles se brisent, déposant ainsi leur quantité de mouvement et leur énergie, ce qui impacte la circulation générale. De plus, cette interaction onde-écoulement moyen est responsable de l'existence de phénomènes régissa

Abstract:
‘The atmosphere’ describes the different layers of the atmosphere and the boundaries between them—troposphere, tropopause, stratosphere, mesopause, mesosphere, ionosphere, and thermosphere—and explains why temperature generally declines with increased altitude: a decrease in pressure causes a parcel of air to expand and cool. The change in temperature with altitude is known as the lapse rate and any decrease or increase in lapse rate is known as an inversion. The inversion at the top of the troposphere is a major feature, always present in the atmosphere. The measuring and charting of atmosphe

Abstract:
The earth’s atmosphere consists of 78% (by volume) of N2; 21% O2; about 0.033% CO2; trace amounts of noble gases, NOx, and CH3; and variable amounts of water vapor. At sea level, the amount of water vapor may vary from 0.5 g per kg of air in polar regions to more then 20 g per kg in the tropics. The standard atmosphere is a theoretical set of data that serves as a reference point for calculation of atmospheric changes due to the weather. The values are calculated for sea level conditions and correspond to a pressure of 760 mm of mercury (92.29 in., 1013.25 mbar), an air density of 1.22 kg/m3,
