dc.description.abstract	The quasi 2-day wave is known as a strong dynamic perturbation occurring usually after solstice in the middle and upper atmosphere. Propagating characteristics of the 2-day wave are studied based on 8- month temperature measurements from the Microwave Limb Sounder on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite. Possible causes of the excitation mechanism responsible for the 2-day wave are discussed.	en_US
