Abstract
A case study is presented of the temporal rotation of an oval characte rizing the distribution of the intensity of internal gravity waves (IG W) at the altitudes 70 - 80 km observed with the Middle and Upper (MU) Atmosphere Radar at Shigaraki, Japan. The oval rotation may be explai ned by interaction between IGWs and the mean wind.
