Optical studies of noctilucent clouds in the extreme ultraviolet

In order to better understand noctilucent clouds (NLC) and their sensitivity to the variable environment of the polar mesosphere, more needs to be learned about the actual cloud particle population. Optical measurements are today the only means of obtaining information about the size of mesospher...
