abstract = "Nightglow images from an all-sky imager deployed at Sao Joao do
Cariri (7.4 \◦S, 36.5\◦ W), from January to December
2005 were used to study quasi-orthogonal gravity waves in the OH
and OI5557 emissions.These gravity waves occurred simultaneously,
propagating with phase fronts almost perpendicular each other. In
this period, 135 nights were investigated and 19 such events have
already been observed for the year 2005 in the OH emission. The
goal of the research estimate the horizontal wind by calculating
the parameters of these gravity waves (horizontal and vertical
wavelength, propagation direction and observed period) and using
Taylor-Goldenstein dispersion relation for gravity waves.
Furthermore, comparison with meteor radar wind data will be done
in order to check the efficiency of the method. Salient results
and discussion will be present in this work.",
