Similar structures might be expected in the mesosphere as well, and several examples have recently been found. CRISTA 1 large-scale data are presented that indicate a surf zone in the middle mesosphere at the beginning of winter. Very small-scale data are shown from the CRISTA 2 mission. Mesospheric variability is found to be high at all altitudes, latitudes, and longitudes. There axe considerable non-zonal structures in these fluctuations. (The duration of the Crista missions was about one week each.)Zonal asymmetries have been known for a long time from comparisons of ground stations measuring the same parameter in the mesosphere / lower thermosphere As an example, upper mesosphere temperatures derived from OH* emissions are compaxed here for Wuppertal and Moscow (Zvenigorod), which are about 2000 km apart. A systematic and substantial difference in temperature is obtained, with higher temperatures at Wuppertal than at Moscow. The difference appears to follow the solar cycle: it is small at solar maximum and large (up to 28 K) at solar minimum. The reason for this surprising behavior is as yet unknown.The Moscow and Wuppertal temperatures have also been analyzed for long-term trends: a trend discrepancy between the two stations is not seen in the data interval common to the two stations.
