Meteor wind measurements obtained from São João do Cariri B and Cachoeira Paulista SP, Brazil, obtained during the period from August 2004 to July 2006 were used to examine Variations in atmospheric tides and winds in the mesopause region of the equatorial and low Latitudes in the southern hemisphere. The results for the mean wind were compared with the HWM 93 and HWM 07 models (Horizontal neutral wind model) and the results of Atmospheric tides with GSWM 02 model (Global Scale Wave Model). From the analysis of These data it was observed that the mean wind, as well as diurnal fluctuations, showed Temporal and in altitude variations for both the zonal and to the south for both the localities investigated. Mean zonal winds for the region of the S. J. do Cariri show a structure that is characterized by a semi annual oscillation, with a flow westward most of the time, in accordance with HWM 07 model. The mean zonal wind at C. Paulista is eastward in the most time and presents a semi annual variation in the 80 90 km altitude range and an annual variation in the altitudes above, in which some aspects are in accordance with HWM 93 and 07 models. The amplitudes of the mean meridional winds were weaker than zonal and present An annual variation for both sites, which are in accordance with HWM 93 model, however the HWM 07 do not reproduce the observed behavior. The meridional diurnal tide amplitudes Showed semi annual variation with maximum of the up to 65 m/s during February April and August September. The vertical wavelength estimated reached values between 21.2 and 27.5 Km at S. J. do Cariri, smaller than the GSWM 02, whereas to C. Paulista the vertical Wavelength were determined between 24 and 31.9 km, near of the GSWM 02 model, but More than the diurnal tide meridional wavelength for Cariri.
