Editorial-Long-Term Changes in the Atmosphere

Abstract

The subject of trends in the atmosphere, which involves among several other topics, the global warming of the lower atmosphere and cooling of the middle and upper atmosphere, is of great interest to meteorologists, geoscientists and environmental scientists. The scope of this special issue is to include studies of trends and long-term variations of the different layers of the atmosphere linked to the increase in greenhouse gases, long term variations in solar and geomagnetic activity, secular variations of the Earth's magnetic field, or any other possible cause of trends in the atmosphere.
