Welcome to this special issue of the Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, dedicated to the investigation of the coupling phenomena in the neutral Atmosphere–Ionosphere System. This special issue covers processes in the Atmosphere–Ionosphere System that significantly influence and/or rule the coupling within the regions. Earth's atmospheric regions are intricately coupled to one another via various dynamical, chemical, and electrodynamic processes. The coupling effects can be seen on the modulation of the waves from the lower to upper atmosphere as well as from low- to high-latitudes, electrodynamic and compositional changes, and plasma irregularities at different latitudinal regions around the globe due to the varying energy inputs. A special attention is paid to the Mesosphere-Lower Thermosphere region that represents a critical region in various coupling processes between the lower/middle atmosphere and the upper atmosphere/ionosphere since it forms physical processes filter and shape the flux of waves ascending through the mesosphere into the overlying thermosphere. Varying energy inputs from the Sun and from the lower atmosphere is one of the topics.
