The subject of this review is the atmospheric chemistry of the metals which ablate from
meteoroids in the Earth, s upper atmosphere. The major meteoric species are Fe, Mg, Si …

This review discusses the magnitude of the cosmic dust input into the earth's atmosphere,
and the resulting impacts from around 100 km to the earth's surface. Zodiacal cloud …

Micrometeorites that ablate in the lower thermosphere and upper mesosphere are thought to
recondense into nanometer‐sized smoke particles and then coagulate into larger dust …

Recent advances in interplanetary dust modelling provide much improved estimates of the
fluxes of cosmic dust particles into planetary (and lunar) atmospheres throughout the solar …

Current knowledge concerning the lower ionosphere (D-and E-region) is reviewed with an
emphasis on new aspects of empirical results. Starting with an overview of experimental …

Nano-sized meteoric smoke particles (MSPs) with iron-magnesium silicate compositions,
formed in the upper mesosphere as a result of meteoric ablation, may remove sulphuric acid …

Stratospheric aerosol particles with diameters larger than about 10 nm were collected within
the arctic vortex during two polar flight campaigns: RECONCILE in winter 2010 and …

We present in situ observations of meteoric smoke particles (MSP) obtained during three
sounding rocket flights in December 2010 in the frame of the final campaign of the …

The role of meteoric smoke as condensation nuclei for mesospheric ice has recently been
challenged by model simulations on the global transport of meteoric material. At the same …

We present a new algorithm to infer information on the properties of charged meteoric
smoke particles (MSPs) from the shape of incoherent scatter radar spectra. We show that in …
