Aeronomy

Aeronomy is the study of the upper atmosphere, focusing on how solar energy and other processes affect gases in this region. It investigates phenomena like the behavior of ionized particles, chemical reactions, and the interactions between the atmosphere and space weather. Aeronomers analyze how these factors influence climate, satellite operations, and even communication systems on Earth. By understanding the upper atmosphere, we can gain insights into weather patterns, atmospheric composition, and potential challenges posed by space phenomena, helping to safeguard technology and improve our knowledge of Earth's environment.
