Research Abstract
ENSO has significant impacts on the upper atmosphere. This project examines the role ENSO-modulated Ozone change in this atmosphere-ionosphere coupling during ENSO. Using whole atmosphere model simulations along with observations, we found ozone modulation strengthens (attenuates) the first symmetric mode of the DW2 (D0 and DW1) tide by +5% (-1% and-4%) from 20 to 100 km altitudes on average. These responses are probably attributed to the tropospheric ozone modulation. These responses are reasonable because both the ozone modulation and these first modes have a peak at the equator. Also, the vertical wavelengths of the first modes are about twice as long as the vertical thickness of the ozone modulation. Our results suggest that the ozone modulation due to El Nino influences the diurnal tides by a few percent because of the ozone modulation spatial structure.
