This project will continue analysis of image data and perform in- depth collaborative studies for investigating the intrinsic properties and sources of short period gravity waves. This work takes advantage of the high linearity of CCD data for quantitative measurements of the wave field using 2-dimensional spectral analysis techniques. In addition, the PI will participate in two campaigns to further knowledge of the abundance, geographic distribution and properties of short period gravity waves. These campaigns will gain novel data important for assessing the "global" impact of gravity waves on the upper atmosphere meteorology.***

该项目将继续分析图像数据，并进行深入的合作研究，以调查短周期重力波的内在属性和来源。 这项工作利用了高线性度的CCD数据的波场的定量测量，使用2维频谱分析技术。 此外，PI将参加两项活动，以进一步了解短周期重力波的丰度，地理分布和特性。 这些活动将获得对评估重力波对高层大气气象学的“全球”影响很重要的新数据。
