Programme

New!

The meeting concerns optical studies at all atmospheric altitudes. Topics include all aspects of optical science including ground-based, in-situ and space-based observations, theory, new techniques, new experiments, etc.

The meeting will bring together scientists to exchange experiences, share scientific results, and plan and coordinate ongoing and future experiments.

We invite you to present and discuss optical science related to:

aurora and ionosphere-thermosphere interaction
noctilucent clouds and mesospheric aeronomy
atmospheric electricity (e.g. sprites, blue jets etc.)
aerosol and clouds
meteors
active experiments in the upper atmosphere
ground-based, in-situ and space-based instruments
new facilities

There will also be a special session to discuss possible synergies between optical and radar techniques related to the EISCAT_3D project.

During the meeting there will be an intercalibration workshop for low-light sources. If you intend to bring a source for calibration please contact Urban Brändström as soon as possible.
