<div>Dear Colleagues,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The AGU Fall Meeting abstracts are due very early this year — July 31st, 2024 — a bit unbelievably early as many people are still working on their papers. We would like to invite you to submit abstracts to Session SA026 “Vertical Coupling between the Atmosphere
and the Ionosphere/Magnetosphere”. </div>

<div>Besides the brief session description that can be found at the link above, we strongly encourage observational studies, including both groundbased and satellite observations. We hope to provide a platform for lidar and radar researchers as well as other
remote-sensing researchers to present their observations which will potentially lead to new discoveries. We also strongly encourage modeling and theoretical studies that are well connected to observations, potentially leading to new understandings. </div>

<div><b>Session Details: </b></div>
<div>Session title: SA026 "Vertical Coupling between the Atmosphere and the Ionosphere/Magnetosphere”</div>
<div>Section: SPA-Aeronomy </div>
<div>Session link: <a href="https://agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/prelim.cgi/Session/227070">https://agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/prelim.cgi/Session/227070</a></div>
<div>Session description: <span style="font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Vertical coupling among the atmosphere, ionosphere, and magnetosphere takes place in broad domains with multiple forms and generates
profound consequences. New opportunities studying such vertical coupling are emerging via detections of ions, neutrals, temperatures, and winds through the atmosphere reaching over the E and F regions with lidars, radars, satellites, and other remote sensing
and in-situ observations. Observational, numerical, and theoretical studies have made significant progresses on, e.g., the multi-step vertical coupling via gravity waves, the vertical transport of sensible heat, meteoric species, and momentum via turbulence
and wave mixing, and atmospheric metals detected high in the upper atmosphere as well as in the stratosphere associated with both cosmic dust ablation/sputtering and anthropogenic activity like spacecraft/space-junk re-entry. This session solicits observational,
numerical modeling, and theoretical studies on vertical coupling facts/evidence, mechanisms, and consequences. Theories and observations on key elements like waves, metal layers, TIDs and TADs are also welcome.</span></div>
