The roles of vertical advection and eddy diffusion in the equatorial mesospheric semi-annual oscillation (MSAO)

Observations of the mesospheric semi-annual oscillation (MSAO) in the equatorial region have been reported dating back several decades. Seasonal variations in both species densities and airglow emissions are well documented. The extensive observations available offer an excellent case study for comp...
