A group of University of California astronomers with the help of NASA grant are launching a satellite in 2017 to study the details of how large thunder storms, particularly in the tropics can drive thermal waves upward and cause major temperature changes in the ionosphere. My own take on this story is that this study may provide a new window on how ionospheric propagation can be changed by tropospheric storms and affect radio communication. YMMV. The full article may be available at SFGate.com, but I'm not online now to chase it down.
