✦ Synopsis

We discuss several recent enhancements to the instrumentation that have taken place at the Arecibo Observatory. These improvements and equipment augmentations strengthen Arecibo's unique position as a facility capable of observing the total atmosphere and ionosphere in the tropics. The changes made, or those planned, affected both the radar and the optical systems. We begin with a description of the current status of the Gregorian Upgrade Project and describe the recent additions of supplementary instrumentation. We also note several examples of the latest experimental investigations of the atmosphere, conducted by visiting scientists and local staff, which range from very high altitudes to near the ground.
