ResearchDescriere
The
reader
may
be
surprised
to
learn
that
the
word
"aeronomy"
is
not
found
in
many
of
the
standard
dictionaries
of
the
English
language
(for
exam
ple,
Webster's
International
dictionary).
Yet
the
term
would
appear
to
exist,
as
evidenced
by
the
affiliations
of
the
two
authors
of
this
volume
(Institut
d'
Aeronomie
Spatiale,
Brussels,
Belgium;
Aeronomy
Laboratory,
National
Oceanic
and
Atmospheric
Administration,
Boulder,
CO,
USA).
Perhaps
part
of
this
obscurity
arises
because
aeronomy
is
a
relatively
new
and
evolving
field
of
endeavor,
with
a
history
dating
back
no
farther
than
about
1940.
The
Chambers
dictionary
of
science
and
technology
provides
the
following
defini
tion:
"aeronomy
(Meteor.
).
The
branch
of
science
dealing
with
the
atmo
sphere
of
the
Earth
and
the
other
planets
with
reference
to
their
chemi
cal
composition,
physical
properties,
relative
motion,
and
reactions
to
radiation
from
outer
space"
This
seems
to
us
an
appropriate
description,
and
it
is
reflected
throughout
the
content
of
this
volume.
The
study
of
the
aeronomy
of
the
middle
atmosphere
experienced
rapid
growth
and
development
during
the
1970's
and
1980's,
particularly
due
to
con
cern
over
the
possibility
of
anthropogenic
perturbations
to
the
state
of
the
middle
atmosphere
and
its
protective
ozone
layer.
As
a
result,
much
has
been
learned
regarding
both
the
natural
behavior
of
the
atmosphere
and
the
impact
of
man's
activities
upon
it.
In
this
book
we
shall
attempt
to
describe
the
current
state
of
the
art
as
we
see
it.
