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 looked into while identifying the SSW impact during the
observational interval. It is found that the seasonal broad
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 short-term 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 at 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
the 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.",
