They play a crucial role in the transfer of energy and momentum between different regions of the atmosphere. The Sun, as the ultimate source of gravity wave energy, significantly influences the intensity of gravity wave disturbances through its activity variations. This paper utilizes data from the Global Navigation Satellite System Occultation Sounder (GNOS) onboard the Fengyun-3C (FY-3C) satellite to invert global stratospheric gravity wave disturbances. It provides the global stratospheric gravity wave distribution from 2015 to 2023, nearly covering one solar activity cycle, and focuses on analyzing the response of gravity waves at different latitudes, altitudes, and wavelengths to the solar activity cycle. We found that short-wavelength gravity waves respond more noticeably to solar activity compared to long-wavelength gravity waves. Through analyzing the intensity of stratospheric gravity wave disturbances across different latitude bands, we found that in high-latitude regions, stratospheric gravity wave disturbances are most sensitive and respond most quickly to variations in solar activity. Furthermore, the Southern Hemisphere exhibits a stronger response to the current year\u2019s solar activity changes compared to the Northern Hemisphere. In the mid-latitude and equatorial regions, the response to changes in solar activity intensity is delayed. The correlation gradually strengthens with this lag, reaching a very strong level after a 2-year lag. Additionally, the correlation between the Southern Hemisphere and solar activity is generally higher than that of the Northern Hemisphere.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16173239","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,2]],"date-time":"2024-09-02T07:59:40Z","timestamp":1725263980000},"page":"3239","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Response of Stratospheric Gravity Waves to the 11-Year Solar Cycle"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8111-1156","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cong","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Atmospheric Physics, Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology, Nanjing 210044, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Space Weather, National Satellite Meteorological Center (National Center for Space Weather), China Meteorological Administration, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qianchuan","family":"Mi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Atmospheric Physics, Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology, Nanjing 210044, China"},{"name":"Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0542-2686","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fei","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Earth and Planetary Physics, Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100029, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wenjie","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Space Science Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaoxin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Atmospheric Physics, Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology, Nanjing 210044, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Space Weather, National Satellite Meteorological Center (National Center for Space Weather), China Meteorological Administration, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8555-0874","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Junfeng","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Space Science Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1327","DOI":"10.1029\/94JD02688","article-title":"Gravity wave activity in the lower atmosphere: Seasonal and latitudinal variations","volume":"100","author":"Allen","year":"1995","journal-title":"J.
