<title>Recent advances in atmospheric ultraviolet remote sensing</title>

Abstract

This paper is a review of selected previously published articles from 1992, 1993, and 1994 in the area of ultraviolet remote sensing of the Earth's thermosphere and ionosphere. The emphasis is on space-borne passive sensors being developed as part of global space weather systems. The intent is to document the progress in this field since publication of two books by the author, Huffman, 1992a, 1993. As a part of this review, recent progress and also current technical measurement challenges are discussed.
