abstract = "We report photometric observations of seasonally dependent
equatorward traveling perturbations of the atomic oxygen 630 nm
airglow over Cachoeira Paulista (CP, Geogr. 22§41'S, 45§ 00' W,
dip 28§S), which are apparently caused by thermospheric gravity
waves. About 40 occurrences of those moving disturbances were
observed from 299 nights of observations within the period of 10
August 1977 to 4 July 1984. Their equatorward velocity, Wavelength
and period were observed to be 150-300 ms-1 100-250 km and 15
min-3 h, respectively. HF polarimeter records showed neither phase
nor amplitude scintillations during the occurrence of those
airglow perturbations which demonstrates that the perturbations
are not associated to equatorial plasma depletions.",
