Abstract Analysis of the lunar tide in the geomagnetic D element at selected stations reveals several anomalous features. A seasonal phase anomaly is confirmed. Large changes in amplitude from year to year are found and a large amplitude in the African region is a consistent feature. It appears that these effects mirror changes in the lunar upper atmosphere tide itself rather than ionospheric influences.
What do lunar geomagnetic variations tell us about the lunar tide in the lower thermosphere?
