For instance, ground-based magnetometers, used in dense networks, routinely enable the derivation of ionospheric currents and geomagnetic indices. Optical instruments not only provide measurements of auroral and airglow emissions, but are also used to observe upper atmospheric winds and temperatures, e.g. in the thermosphere and mesosphere. Such parameters can also be measured with radars, spanning a wide range of active (ionosondes, meteor radars, coherent and incoherent scatter radars, VLF transmitters, Lidars) and passive (riometers, VLF receivers) systems.
Combining ground-based observations from various instruments enables the development of novel data analysis methodologies which in turn enhance our understanding of the underlying physics of space weather and ionosphere-upper atmosphere processes. This includes the study of densities, temperatures and composition of the ionosphere–upper atmosphere, monitoring of its dynamics and chemistry, and measuring of fluxes from precipitating particles and current systems.
In this session, we invite contributions featuring the use of ground-based instruments in studies of the ionosphere–upper atmosphere system across all latitudes and of space weather and ionospheric–atmospheric physics processes of various time and spatial scales.
