Overview
- Presents the effects and interaction of Earth’s atmospheric and plasma environments on one another by events such as magnetic substorms, thermal expansion and vertical/horizontal winds
- Discusses the global response of the Ionosphere to atmospheric tides forced from below, as well as recent progress from satellite measurements
- Explains impulsive coupling between the atmosphere and the Ionosphere/Magnetosphere

Reviews
From the reviews:
“If you ever wanted to know almost everything about recent progress and highlights of research on the Earth’s upper atmosphere, this book is an excellent choice for you. … quality of the book is magnificent. It is evident that a lot of effort was spent to produce extremely informative figures, most of them in color, and to eradicate any typos to enable a most enjoyable and undisturbed reading experience. … book offers advanced readers an encyclopedic overview of recent progress.” (Martin Fullekrug, The Radio Science Bulletin, Issue 348, March, 2014)Editors and Affiliations
