Using a global circulation model of the middle atmosphere we analyze the influence of different tropospheric gravity wave amplitude distributions in the gravity wave parameterization on the mean circulation. Thereby we compare the standard configuration, which includes a simple zonal mean weighting of gravity wave amplitudes with a more realistic zonal mean weighting obtained from measurements using GPS radio occultations and a GW distribution in both latitude and longitude. The results show a stronger polar vortex and a descent of the meridional wind jet in the mesopause. Furthermore, two-dimensional weightings from the measurements are considered in order to analyze nonzonal effects resulting especially in stationary planetary waves. In t...
