Aeronomy of the Earth's Atmosphere and Ionosphere

This book is a multi-author treatise on the most outstanding research problems in the field of the aeronomy of the Earth’s atmosphere and ionosphere, encompassing the science covered by Division II of the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA). It contains several review articles and detailed papers by leading scientists in the field. The book is organized in five parts: 1) Mesosphere-Lower Thermosphere Dynamics and Chemistry; 2) Vertical Coupling by Upward Propagating Waves; 3) Ionospheric Electrodynamics and Structuring; 4) Thermosphere- Ionosphere Coupling, Dynamics and Trends and 5) Ionosphere-Thermosphere Disturbances and Modeling.

Ionospheres: Physics, Plasma Physics, and Chemistry

by: Robert Schunk, Andrew Nagy
This combination of text and reference book describes the physical, plasma and chemical processes controlling the behavior of ionospheres, upper atmospheres and exospheres. It summarizes the structure, chemistry, dynamics and energetics of the terrestrial ionosphere and other solar system bodies, and discusses the processes, mechanisms and transport equations for solving fundamental research problems. This second edition incorporates new results, model developments and interpretations from the last 10 years.

Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere (AIM) Lessons Learned (James Russell III)

The development and implementation of a satellite mission in today's world brings with it many problems, and it is often the case that many of these are unplanned and unforeseen. Consequently, the success of the mission depends heavily on the degree of preparation and anticipation of problems that has occurred going into the development. Despite such efforts, evolving technical and managerial requirements and unpredicted issues sometimes occur late in the development that could threaten mission success. A cohesive, excited, and unified team and the strength of the relationships between the principal investigator, NASA mission manager, project scientist, program executive, program scientist, and Executive Advisory Board are key factors for success. Some of the challenges faced in the AIM mission development, steps taken to address these issues, and some lessons learned will be discussed.
