Scientific paper

A new multi-emission Fabry-Perot Interferometer was installed at the Early Polar Cap Observatory in Resolute, Canada in the summer of 2003. The instrument provides neutral wind measurements from the upper and lower thermosphere and the mesosphere using the atomic oxygen 630 nm and 557.7 nm emissions, and the OH 892 nm emission. Several other filter positions are also available for future expansion and collaborative campaigns. The wind errors for the 630 nm emission range from 3 to 15 m/s with a 5-minute integration. The errors for the 557.7 and 892 nm emissions are 3 and 8 m/s with a 3-minute integration, respectively. The instrument is fully automated and will able to provide continuous coverage during the northern winter season. We present some new results from the instrument, and discuss future collaborations with other ground-based and satellite investigations.
