A winter anomaly campaign in Western Europe

Abstract
An integrated campaign of ground-based, balloon- and rocket-borne measurements was performed in Western Europe during winter 1975—76. The campaign was aimed at the study of the atmospheric—ionospheric coupling during pronounced disturbances of ionospheric E -region electron density (winter anomaly). Various atmospheric and ionospheric parameters were measured in the altitude regime 30—120 km. A large set of middle atmosphere temperature data as obtained from satellites is also available for the time period of the campaign. Some major aspects of the campaign are described and respective results presented as they are available at the present state of data evaluation.
