Description
We present the characteristics of small scale (< 100 km) gravity waves in the lower and upper atmosphere derived from imaging riometer at SANAE (710 S,20 W). FFT technique is used to extract wave parameters of the gravity waves. These waves have horizontal phase speed of 0-250 m/s, horizontal wavelength of 16-30 km and the period of 3-30 min. And the propagation direction is ~ 50 degrees.
