dedicated to the Polar Vortex and its connections to the Ionosphere-Thermosphere-Mesosphere (ITM) system. Through a tutorial talk and recent science highlights, this session aims to solicit discussions on whole atmosphere interconnections between the strato-mesospheric
polar vortices and the ITM system. The session welcomes observational, modeling, and theoretical investigations that explore the coupling between terrestrial weather and the ITM system across spatiotemporal scales.</span></p>
