This publication contains 41 of the 109 papers presented at the symposium "Coupling and Energetics in the Coupled Stratosphere-Mesosphere-Thermosphere-Ionosphere System" presented at the 31st COSPAR Scientific Assembly held in Birmingham, England, 1996. Areas covered include all aspects of the energy and momentum budget of the middle atmosphere, the lower thermosphere, and ionosphere. The basic structure of these regions of the atmosphere is examined, as are fluxes of dynamical, chemical and radiative energy and momentum at all spatial and temporal scales. The symposium and this publication provide an excellent platform from which future advances will be driven by improved data sets to be obtained from new investigations by means of rockets, satellites and new MST, coherent and incoherent scatter radars.
