Abstract
Mini-EUSO ("UV atmosphere" in Russian Space Program) will observe Earth night side atmosphere from ISS in the UV band. The observed light consists mainly of light produced by airglow. We investigate the feasibility to observe airglow dynamics by Mini-EUSO detector. The investigation focuses on observability of two effects. One is the observability of magnetic storms in airglow light, where we expect decreasing light production in UV during storms. The other is the possibility to detect patterns created by atmospheric gravity waves induced by tsunami waves.

Metadata are provided both in "article" format (very similar to INSPIRE) as this helps creating
very compact bibliographies which can be beneficial to authors and
