A comprehensive study of the ionospheric D and E regions of                the atmosphere is the central theme in this study.  The                         experimental work will utilize both the radar and optical                       facilities at the Arecibo Observatory with data analysis and                    theoretical work carried out at Penn State University.  Specific                studies will involve the chemistry and dynamics of the mesopause                OH emission region, formation and transport of "sporadic" layers                of ionization and involvement in a multi-instrumented campaign                  (AIDA) at Arecibo, with planning for an in-depth multi-                         instrumented coordinated rocket program associated with the D and               E regions.
