Comparison of mesospheric and lower thermospheric residual wind with High Resolution Doppler Imager, medium frequency, and meteor radar winds
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The objective of this study is to compare observed mean meridional winds with those deduced from theory. The diabatic circulation is computed from High Resolution Dopper Imager (HRDI) mesospheric and lower thermospheric temperatures during January and July conditions. The meridional wind component is compared with HRDI Eulerian mean meridional winds near 95 km and with seasonal averages of meridional winds at a number of radar medium‐frequency (MF) and meteor wind (MW) sites. The diabatic wind is directed from the summer toward the winter hemisphere. Peak values exceed 20 m s−1 and are observed at 105 km near 20° in the summer hemisphere. A secondary maximum of about 10 m s−1 is observed in the wintertime lower mesosphere during the July case. The diabatic wind is qualitatively consistent with HRDI 95‐km mean meridional winds at latitudes equatorward of 50°. Time‐averaged summertime radar winds are consistent with HRDI and diabatic winds between 50°S and 20°N. At winter midlatitudes, MF radar winds are directed oppositely to the diabatic wind, while one available MW measurement is directed with the diabatic wind. The zonal acceleration implied by the diabatic wind is about 150–200 m s−1 d−1 in the midlatitude summer lower thermosphere.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
