The International Symposium on Coupling Processes in the Equatorial Atmosphere (CPEA Symposium) seeks to deepen our understanding of a broad range of dynamical, electrodynamical and photochemical coupling processes that occur in the atmosphere and ionosphere. Special attention could be paid to wave excitation by cumulus convection, and coupling attributable to convectively-excited small-scale and large-scale waves. Atmospheric/ionospheric processes and their couplings in the equatorial and low-latitude regions are the main interest of the symposium. But discussions of coupling processes in the mid- and high-latitude regions are also important. In particular, papers on new observations, modeling methods and theoretical studies are sought. We wish to solicit widely papers from many related fields, which will discuss a variety of coupling processes in the atmosphere, assess our current knowledge of the equatorial atmosphere, and identify outstanding scientific questions and future observational needs.
