Atmospheric tide information


Atmospheric tides are global-scale periodic oscillations of the atmosphere. In many ways they are analogous to ocean tides. They can be excited by:

  • The regular day-night cycle in the Sun's heating of the atmosphere (insolation)
  • The gravitational field pull of the Moon
  • Non-linear interactions between tides and planetary waves
  • Large-scale latent heat release due to deep convection in the tropics
