研究概要 |
The upper atmosphere response to stratosphere sudden warming was studied using the GAIA model. Model simulation reveals strong local time and height dependence of the thermosphere temperature and density. The following features are found: (1) The effect is primarily quasi-semidiurnal in tropical regions, with warming in the noon and pre-midnight sectors and cooling in the dawn and dusk sectors. (2) This pattern exists at all altitudes above 100km, with its phase being almost constant above 200km, but propagates downward in the lower thermosphere between 100 and 200 km. (3) The northern polar region experiences warming in a narrow layer between 100 and 130km, while the southern polar region experiences cooling throughout 100–400 km altitudes. (4) The global net thermal effect on the atmosphere above 100km is a cooling of approximately 12 K. These characteristics provide us with an urgently needed global context to better connect and understand the increasing upper atmosphere observations during SSW events.

現在までの達成度 (区分)
1: 当初の計画以上に進展している
理由
The model simulation was carried out rather smoothly without much problem. This enabled us to quickly proceed with the investigation of the underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, with the models' various output parameters, we could carry out a more intensive analysis on the interaction between the upper and lower atmosphere during stratosphere sudden warming.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
1. Further investigation of the upper atmosphere dynamical change caused by tidal variations using the model. 2. Investigate the lunar tides signature in the long-term champ density observation and also the GAIA long-term simulation results.
