Description

The existence of a diffuse “corona” of hydrogen at the top of the earth’s atmosphere was predicted in the mid 19th century. One hundred and fifty years later, the distribution of hydrogen in the upper atmosphere remains poorly understood. These density distributions are needed to test atmospheric photochemical modeling of hydrogen containing molecules. The goal of this workshop will be to summarize the current state of knowledge regarding the hydrogen geocorona, including: observations (satellite and ground-based), modeling and future studies.

Workshop Summary

This is where the final summary workshop report will be.
