Abstract

Abstract In this paper, the observation data of the Wuhan MST radar in the whole 2012 are used to make a statistical analysis on the low stratospheric and troposphere tidal waves. The results show that: (1) the diurnal tide is the strongest and most of the time at low levels of Sunday tide is stronger than the high tide of Sunday. (2) the amplitude of the tidal wave is not modulated by the fluctuation with a smaller time scale than their periods, and only these waves with a longer time scale than their periods can affect the variation of the amplitude of the tidal waves.
