Abstract
University College London (UCL) has conducted research on theupper atmosphere of the arctic auroral regions since the 1960s, contributingwith both observational and modelling studies. In terms of observations, UCLhas designed and built its own Fabry-P ́erot Interferometer (FPI) instrumentsand deployed a network of these in Northern Scandinavia since the beginningof the 1980s. Meanwhile on the modelling side, UCL has developed so-calledGeneral Circulation Model (GCM) of the upper atmosphere/ionosphere coupledsystem, originally for the Earth, leading to the current CMAT2, but also forseveral other solar system bodies like Mars, the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn,and the latter’s largest moon Titan, and a Jupiter-type exoplanet. This paperdescribes the contribution of UCL to the ESPAS project, with data from theFPI, and CMAT2, and work on the preliminary result of an ESPAS use casestudy in conjunction with the Met Office to compare FPI and CMAT2 data.
