Horizontal wind measurements from the HRDI and WINDII instruments on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite are analyzed to reveal the most prominent nonmigrating diurnal tidal components at 95 km: the eastward propagating diurnal tide with zonal wave number s = 3 (DE3), the standing (s = 0) diurnal oscillation (D0), and the westward propagating diurnal tide with s = 2 (DW2). The strongest DE3 occurs primarily during Northern Hemisphere summer/fall with maximum eastward winds near the equator of order 15 ms⁻¹ and is a vertical extension of the s = 3 Kelvin wave. The first antisymmetric mode of DE3 dominates during October–April, with maximum meridional winds near the equator of order 8 ms⁻¹. D0 exists during nearly all months and is nonsymmetric about the equator with maximum northward wind amplitudes in the Southern Hemisphere of order 7–10 ms⁻¹. DW2 closely resembles the first symmetric propagating mode from classical tidal theory, with maximum northward wind amplitudes of order 10–12 ms⁻¹ during September through February. The combination of DE3, D0, and DW2 with DW1 gives rise to significant longitude variations in the diurnal tide between ±40° latitude. Forcing in the Global Scale Wave Model (GSWM) is calibrated according to the above observations, thus enabling global estimates of nonmigrating tidal temperatures and other fields. For instance, it is estimated that the temperature and eastward wind perturbations associated with DE3 may be as large as 20K and 35 ms⁻¹ at 145 km and 115 km, respectively, over the equatorial region during July.
