abstract = "The nightly and seasonal variations in gravity wave activity in
the mesopause region are studied by analyzing 71 nights of
atmospheric sodium (80 - 105 Km) densities observations obtained
by a laser radar during a 8-year period at Sao Jose dos Campos (23
S, 46 W). The data are used to calculate the atmospheric density
perturbations and its spectra in temporal frequency [Fa( ) x ] and
in vertical wavenumber [Fa( ) x m]. The atmospheric density
variances, spectra magnitudes, and m spectra magnitudes all
exhibit considerable nightly variability and a weak annual and
semiannual variations. The rms atmospheric density perturbations
has an annual mean value of 6.85. The and m spectra exhibit power
law shapes with slopes varying, respectively, between -1.02 and
-2.04, and between -1.39 and -3.93. The annual mean slopes are
-1.34 [Fa( ) and -2.42 [Fa(m)].",
