abstract = "A Gravity wave (GW) event was observed using an all-sky airglow at
Sao Joao do Cariri (7.4oS, 36.50W). These measurements were
obtained on the 08 April 2005 after a total solar eclipse, and the
reverse ray-tracing (RRT) was used to track their trajectories
leading to the sources of these GWs. The wind database, an input
parameter in this technique was estimated using measurements from
HWM-93 (0-100km), and TIE-GCM model (100-400km); while the
vertical temperature profiles were obtained using the SABER
measurements, NRLMSISE-00 model and TIE-GCM model as supplements
at points where experimental data were unavailable. The spectral
parameters of this GW were calculated using OI6300 images. The GW
propagates 131 degrees from the North, it had a horizontal
wavelength of 127 km and an observed period of 14.1 mins. Results
from RRT showed that the likely sources of this GWs were in the
troposphere-stratosphere, close to part of the eclipse sunshine in
the northern part of the South American continent.",
