[P-EM11] New frontier: Observations of the middle and upper atmospheres from ISS

Mon. May 25, 2015 11:00 AM - 11:45 AM A01 (APA HOTEL&RESORT TOKYO BAY MAKUHARI)

Convener:*Akinori Saito(Department of Geophysics, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University), Mitsuteru Sato(Department of Cosmoscience, Hokkaido University), Yuichi Otsuka(Solar-Terrestrial Environment Laboratory, Nagoya University), Tomoo Ushio(Information and communication engineering department, Osaka University), Makoto Suzuki(Institute for Space and Astronautical Sciences, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency), Chair:Akinori Saito(Department of Geophysics, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University), Yuichi Otsuka(Solar-Terrestrial Environment Laboratory, Nagoya University)

This session seeks contributions on the new results derived from the past and ongoing observations of the Earth's lower, middle, and upper atmosphere from the International Space Station, such as the IMAP, GLIMS, and SMILES missions. Observational and theoretical studies of the field including related ground-based observations, future plans, suggestions for the future collaborative studies are welcome.
