In a whole-atmosphere model, gravity waves from non-tropospheric sources add at most modest changes to thermospheric winds, and including them does not improve agreement with ICON/MIGHTI satellite winds.
The contour intervals for the drag are in 20 m s −1 day−1 within 200 m s−1 day−1

Impact of Gravity Waves From Tropospheric and Non-tropospheric Sources on the Middle and Upper Atmosphere and Comparison with ICON/MIGHTI Winds
In a whole-atmosphere model, gravity waves from non-tropospheric sources add at most modest changes to thermospheric winds, and including them does not improve agreement with ICON/MIGHTI satellite winds.
