4. Noctilucent clouds in a coupled atmosphere
Abstract : Noctilucent clouds (NLC) at altitudes around 80 km are the highest clouds in our atmosphere. They have been a subject of research ever since their discovery in the late 19th century. This thesis takes an important step towards using NLC as a tool for studying dynamic coupling processes in the atmosphere on a global scale. READ MORE
