A climatology of medium-scale gravity wave activity in the midlatitude/low-latitude daytime upper thermosphere as observed by CHAMP

We report on a detailed global climatology of medium‐scale (150–600 km) thermospheric gravity wave (GW) activity using mass density observations onboard the CHAMP satellite from 2001 to 2010. Our study focuses mainly on daytime (09–18 h in local time) and midlatitude/low‐latitude upper thermosphere...
