        Session Description:

Studying the science of terrestrial and other planets, not only increase
our understanding of other planetary bodies but these studies also
contributes to our understanding of fundamental scientific problems. This
session will focus on the concepts of interdisciplinary and general
studies of terrestrial and planetary atmospheres and ionospheres along
with the environmental, geological, and potential biological conditions on
other planetary bodies. Studies focused on, Earths and planetary
atmosphere and ionospheres, and exploration science, tools and techniques
including instrument development for ground-based studies and along with
in-situ and onboard deployable tools and techniques and their testing and
calibrations. In the main scientific themes study on the atmosphere and
ionospheres of the Earth and other planets, coupling process and
atmospheric dynamics, variations in vital constituents viz., density,
temperature and pressure. Issues and studies based on various trace
species as ozone, methane, etc., will also play an important role in this
proposed session.
Studies based on the development of various instruments (for remote
sensing as well as in-situ investigations) and challenges involved during
the journey of instrument development. Furthermore, research works which
explores, experimentally and/or theoretically, the origin and evolution of
life on the Earth and the potential for life outside it. Scientific works
based on the modeling activities of the Earth and other planetary
atmospheres and its comparison with the observations made by several
ground based (Lidar, Radar, Photometers, Spectrometers, etc.,) and
satellite based instruments.

This session will also involve the studies based on computer simulations
to demonstrate the Earth and planetary science concepts and explorations
of the atmosphere. Papers on techno-science driven studies and learning
techniques (a mix of science and technology) on above mentioned themes
will also be welcomed.
