abstract = "Tidal variability in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT)
during September 2019 Southern hemisphere minor sudden
stratospheric warming (SSW) is investigated utilizing ground-based
meteor radar wind observations from the equatorial, extratropical,
middle, and high latitude stations and global reanalysis dataset.
The polar warming is found to move from the mesosphere to the
stratosphere until the peak warming day (PWD) of the SSW. The
diurnal and semidiurnal tides at individual observational sites do
not exhibit any consistent response during the observational
interval, but a notable and consistent variability in some
specific zonal wavenumber components, i.e., DW1 (migrating diurnal
tide), DE3 (nonmigrating eastward wavenumber 3 diurnal tide), and
SW2 (migrating semidiurnal tide) is found in the global reanalysis
dataset. Incidentally, the warming event occurs during Spring
equinox when a dominant seasonal change in the tidal activities
generally takes place and hence seasonal variability is also
obtained in the present work while identifying the SSW impact
during the observational interval. It is found that the seasonal
broad-scale changes in the DW1, DE3, and SW2 amplitudes can be
explained by the variability in the tidal sources, i.e., water
vapor, convective activity, ozone, etc during the observational
period. However, the extracted small-scale variability in the
global tidal modes on removing seasonal trend reveals noticeable
response in connection with the warming event. The deseasoned
amplitude of the DW1 significantly enhances around the PWD in most
of the present latitudes. The deseasoned DE3 amplitude responds
significantly in the middle atmosphere at low latitudes during the
warming phase. The deseasoned SW2 exhibit clear enhancement around
the PWD at all present latitudes. However, the deseasoned tidal
features do not seem to correlate well with that of the source
species unlike the seasonal ones that imply involvement of complex
processes during the warming event, seeking further future
investigations in this regard.",
