Upper Atmospheric Physicists Study High Air Temperatures From Auroras
University of Saskatchewan researchers led by Dr. D M Hunten use a spectroscope to infer upper air temperatures near the aurora at about 60 miles altitude. The work involves master's students and extended readings to track fluctuations, addressing ionosphere disturbances affecting radio transmissions and spaceflight knowledge.
