(1) CEDAR-GEM individual workshops, 26 June-01 July 2011, Santa Fe, NM, 
http://cedarweb.hao.ucar.edu/wiki/index.php/2011_Workshop:Main.

*(a)CEDAR workshop "Theoretical and experimental studies of the low-latitude 
thermosphere-ionosphere system" on Tues 28 Jun.

 From Fabiano Rodrigues (frodrigues at astraspace.net).

Conveners: Odile de La Beajuardiere, Gang Lu, Jonathan Makela and Fabiano Rodrigues

In the past few years, new hypotheses and theories describing equatorial spread 
F initiation and development have been proposed. New and exciting ground-based 
and in-situ observations of the Ionosphere-Thermosphere (IT) at low-latitudes 
have also been made. Additionally, numerical modeling capabilities of the 
low-latitude IT have significantly improved. This workshop will provide an 
opportunity for the CEDAR community to present and discuss results of 
theoretical and experimental studies related to the low-latitude IT system; 
emphasizing equatorial spread F (ESF).

The workshop welcomes contributions on experimental investigations, theoretical 
analyses and numerical simulation studies, including assimilative models of the 
low-latitude ionosphere, and non-linear models of ESF. The presentation of 
results related to observations of the low-latitude IT or phenomena related to 
ESF, especially those made by new ground stations, by C/NOFS and results from 
the spreadFEx2 campaign in Brazil are expected. Additionally, we anticipate 
contributions related to studies of the effects of magnetosphere-ionosphere 
coupling processes on the low-latitude thermosphere/ionosphere and ESF as well 
as on the effects caused by the coupling with the lower and neutral atmosphere.
