abstract = {Atmospheric gravity waves (GWs) are important for
turbulence and for driving large-scale circulations in the
mid to upper atmosphere. Global circulation models (weather
and climate models) do not properly resolve part of the GW
spectrum and therefore can not properly reproduce the
atmospheric circulations. The models use parameterisation
schemes in an attempt to capture the effect of the
unresolved GWs. However, parameterisation schemes
oversimplify the physical effects in the atmosphere and more
complex theories are needed to describe the GWs more
realistically. It is widely known that the GW drag amount
and the location there-of are incorrect in the general
circulation models. This dissertation relies on observations
to better understand GWs, which leads to suggestions for
improvements in general circulation models. Observations
consist of GLORIA (Gimballed Limb Observer for Radiance
Imaging of the Atmosphere) and ALIMA (Airborne LIdar for the
Middle Atmosphere) instruments onboard the German High
Altitude LOng range (HALO) research aircraft. This allows
high-resolution measurements from about 5 km to 80 km. ...},
