Low-Latitude Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Ionosphere

Abstract

The objective of this proposed special issue was to provide a forum for papers related to the recent advances in the field of equatorial and low-latitude regions of mesosphere, thermosphere, and ionosphere from observational (groundbased and space-borne), theoretical, and simulation studies. A total of 11 papers are presented, out of which 10 are invited and 1 contributed (F. Ouattara et al.). 2 papers are reviews, one dealing with a network of Fabry-Perot interferometers for large-scale measurements of the neutral winds and temperature in the Earth’s thermosphere (J. J. Makela et al.) and the second dealing with the equatorial F2 layer stratification (M. V. Klimenko et al.)
