Tides in the upper atmosphere: A controversy resolved?

Diurnal temperature variations in the upper atmosphere are caused by heating resulting from the absorption of solar energy by ozone near the stratopause and by water vapor in the troposphere. Theoretical temperature variations given as a function of time and height show a discrepancy for the maximum temperature variation. A comprehensive set of acoustic grande soundings establish phase changes with altitude in agreement with the theory although times of maximum and minimum are not aligned at all altitudes.

Time-resolved spectra of bulk titanium combustion

Some preliminary spectroscopic results of an investigation of the radiation from bulk specimens of burning titanium are presented. The use of larger stationary specimens is shown to have considerably eased some of the experimental difficulties associated with metal combustion research and to approximate more closely the conditions prevailing in large-scale accidental metal fires.
