abstract = "On October 5, 2007 (1), October 9, 2007 (2), and September 3, 2008
(3), mesospheric fronts were observed over Cachoeira Paulista
(23\◦S, 45\◦W) using an all-sky airglow imager.
Images of OH, Na, O2(0,1) and OI557.7 nm airglow emissions were
collected during the nights of observation. The mesospheric bores
were found to be rear events as they were only observed thrice
within a span of two years. The observed fronts were undular and a
non-undular bore with dark fronts only. These suggest the absence
of complimentary images which indicate that the bore would be
centered below the airglow emission layers as proposed by Dewan
and Picard, 1998. The fronts propagated from SW-NE for (1) and
NW-SE for (2 \& 3), dividing the sky into bright and dark halves.
These events could also occur as a result of a sudden change in
the normal temperature profile of the atmosphere. As a result of
this, the background of the atmosphere was studied using LIDAR
data measured at Sao Jos´e dos Campos (23.2\◦S,
46\◦W) so as to detect this abrupt change in temperature.",
