This book describes the relationship between the atmosphere and the
external plasma of Earth in an unconventional manner. While the
main mechanical energy is located in the dense atmosphere, the
presence of Earth's plasma environment, which is immersed in the
magnetosphere, causes a number of very interesting effects on the
atmosphere. A list of such effects includes magnetic substorms,
magnetic storms and aurora to the dynamics of the upper atmosphere,
heating, thermal expansion, and vertical and horizontal winds.
Particle precipitation produces excess ionization and electric
currents, causes electric fields, affects recombination and
modifies chemical reactions. These are processes which may become
important in the climate. The collected articles provide an
overview of these effects. This volume is aimed at graduate
students and researchers active in the areas of atmospheric science
and space science. Previously published in Space Science Reviews,
Vol. 168/1-4, 2012.
