abstract = "Simultaneous observations of the night airglow OH (6, 2) band
emission intensity and rotational temperature, by a sky scanning
airglow spectrophotometer, and meteor winds, by a middle and upper
atmosphere radar (MU radar), were carried out at Shigaraki (34.9
degree N, 136.1 degree E), Japan, from October 29 to November 11,
1994, as the first phase of a campaign, and from July 25 to July
31, 1995 as the second phase. Horizontal structures in the OH
emission intensity and rotational temperature were monitored
optically, together with the background wind and its wave induced
fluctuations, measured by MU radar. Since the MU radar makes a
direct measurement of the vertical wavelength, and the OH
spectrophotometer makes a direct measurement of the horizontal
wavelength, the two techniques are mutually complementary to
determine intrinsic wave parameters. Gravity waves with intrinsic
periods of 2 to 9 hours, horizontal wavelengths of 500 to 3000 km
and vertical wavelengths of 12 to 75 km were identified. Between
the two different observation techniques, there is a reasonable
agreement in the inferred wave characteristics.",
