Brief Initial Description

This workshop is intended to allow for presentation of new results employing lidars and correlative instruments contributing to MLT science and coupling of the MLT to lower and higher altitudes. Studies performed with lidar data alone or in combination with data from other instruments are encouraged. Possible topics include climatologies compiled with one or more instruments, mean or tidal structures and variability, gravity wave dynamics, ducted waves and bores, interactions between large and small scales, instabilities, coupling to other altitudes, sporadic layers, and minor species distributions and chemistry.

We anticipate contributions from a number of groups within the Consortium of Resonance and Rayleigh Lidars (CRRL), others not yet supported within the CRRL, and hopefully our foreign colleagues. Contributing lidar groups are expected to include CSU, CU, CoRA, AO, UAK, USU, IAP, and any others that may wish to participate.

We also anticipate an open structure and a discussion format. To assist us in organizing the workshop, we encourage speakers to notify the conveners of their intended topic(s) in advance of the deadline for final workshop descriptions if at all possible.
