| Session Description |
This General Session for Upper Atmosphere and Ionosphere is meant for submitting papers that may not suit well to any of the specific sections. Contributions addressing local and global issues in mesosphere-lower thermosphere (MLT) region, upper-thermosphere, ionosphere and plasmasphere regions and international reference ionosphere (IRI) are solicited. The topics of interest include the generation and propagation of mean winds, tides, gravity waves and planetary waves, nocti-lucent clouds , polar mesospheric summer echoes (PMSE), sudden stratospheric waring (SSW), equatorial and auroral electrojets, sporadic E and metallic layers, day-to-day, seasonal, solar cycle, interhemispheric and longitude variations of ionosphere and thermosphere, ionospheric and thermospheric anomalies, ionospheric currents and electric fields, plasma bubbles, spread-F and scintillations, air glows, TIDs and TADs, ionospheric and thermospheric storms, and space weather. Contributions using ground-based and in-situ observations, theory and modelling are solicited. |
