<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#333333">We are in a period of unprecedented progress in understanding the mesopause region and ice layers that form there. There have been significant advances in ground
and space observations of the ice layers as well as temperature, water, other relevant species, and the particulates which serve as ice nucleation sites. Sophisticated multidimensional models of this region now incorporate microphysics calculations and serve
as crucial tools in understanding the coupling between mesopause ice layers and the mesopause environment. We solicit papers discussing the microphysics of the ice layers, the composition and structure of the mesopause environment, nucleation sources and processes,
variability in the mesospheric environment on all spatial and temporal scales and ice response to that variability, vertical and meridional coupling, and the extent and causes of long-term changes. Observational and theoretical papers are welcome.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
