The subject of this review is the atmospheric chemistry of the metals which ablate from
meteoroids in the Earth, s upper atmosphere. The major meteoric species are Fe, Mg, Si …

The subject of this review is the atmospheric chemistry of the metals that ablate from
meteoroids at altitudes between 70 and 120 km in the Earth's atmosphere. Before describing …

Trends and variations in global stratospheric temperatures are an integral part of the
changes occurring in the Earth's climate system. Data sets for analyzing long‐term (a …

In recent times it has become increasingly clear that releases of trace gases from human
activity have a potential for causing change in the upper atmosphere. However, our …

A multiple linear regression analysis of the ERA-40 dataset for the period 1979–2001 has
been used to study the influence of the 11-yr solar cycle on atmospheric temperature and …

The book summarizes international progress over the last few decades in upper atmosphere
airglow research. Measurement methods, theoretical concepts and empirical models of a …

We present an exact solution for the distribution P (hm, L) of the maximal height hm
(measured with respect to the average spatial height) in the steady state of a fluctuating …

This review recapitulates the concept of the wave-driven residual circulation in the
stratosphere and mesosphere. The residual circulation is defined as the conventional mean …

Rotational temperatures are derived from measurements of the (3-1) transitions of the OH
Meinel bands. They are found to be a reasonable proxy for atmospheric kinetic temperatures …

The greenhouse effect, commonly associated with lower-atmospheric warming, manifests as
cooling in the middle and upper atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is the main cooler and its …
