GSWM-09 simulations of nonmigrating diurnal (left) and semidiurnal (right) tidal temperature amplitudes. GSWM-09 simulations of nonmigrating diurnal (left) and semidiurnal (right) tidal temperature amplitudes at 110 km, based on the work of Zhang et al. [2010a], [2010b]. Bottom: tropospheric latent heat forcing only, based on TRMM data products. Middle: tropospheric radiative heating only, based on ISCCP data products. Top: combined tropospheric latent and radiative heating. The dominant migrating components are excluded to better highlight the smaller nonmigrating components.
