The lower atmosphere, or aerosphere, is a critical habitat for many organisms; however, it has only recently received attention in the context of ecological processes and global change. The newly emerging discipline of aeroecology is dedicated to studying this biome and characterizing usage of airspace by animals - birds, bats, insects, microorganisms. One of primary sampling tools, radar, has experienced a resurgence as a method to study animal movements in the atmosphere in the era of big data and machine learning. Radar data illuminate processes spatially from meters to thousands of kilometers and temporally from minutes to decades, providing an immense opportunity to study aerial transport of biomass and nutrients aloft. The relevance of this topic is particularly well aligned with the characterization and study of ecosystem resilience and effects on biomass movements of extreme and anomalous events like hurricanes, fires, and atmospheric oscillations and massive anthropogenic development of airspace. This topic will have broad interest from ornithologists to meteorologists to entomologists, epidemiologsts, and data scientists to name a few disciplines. Work presented will include six 10-minute presentations describing multiple spatial and temporal scale analyses of migration systems with respect to climate and meteorological extremes and a 15 minute panel discussion on 1) how to take advantage of fundamental new opportunities for studying transport and flux of nutrients via flying organisms, 2) potential collaborations among aeroecologists, terrestrial ecologists, physical and atmospheric chemists, and ecologists.
