From Timothy.Kodikara at dlr.de Tue Jul 4 06:46:16 2023 From: Timothy.Kodikara at dlr.de (Timothy.Kodikara at dlr.de) Date: Tue, 4 Jul 2023 12:46:16 +0000 Subject: CEDAR email: TIE-GCM OTHITACS Dataset Released Message-ID: <485441684e90dbf7b6ac986cc26910d20283ba96.camel@dlr.de> The open time-series of the high-resolution ionosphere-thermosphere aeronomic climate simulation (OTHITACS) Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the release of the TIE-GCM OTHITACS dataset. This dataset, now available at https://doi.org/10.26050/WDCC/OTHITACS_tiegcm, provides an unparalleled collection of TIE-GCM output from 1 January 2000 onwards, totalling over 80 TB of data. Thanks to the computing and data resources provided by the Kratos HPDA (High-Performance Data Analysis) cluster at the German Aerospace Center (DLR), the OTHITACS dataset provides 38 diagnostics of the ionosphere- thermosphere system at a 10-minute cadence. The dataset is archived at the World Data Center for Climate (WDCC) at DKRZ ( https://www.wdc-climate.de/ui/project?acronym=OTHITACS). The dataset provides opportunities to study, among others, long-term ionospheric plasma density variability, neutral composition trends, neutral winds, ion drift velocity, equatorial anomaly, and travelling ionospheric/atmospheric disturbances. Additionally, researchers can leverage this dataset to develop machine learning-based tools and computationally simpler, reduced-order physics-based models. bw, Tim ????????????????????????

More info below. Title: AE007 - Physics of Streamers, Leaders, and the Lightning Discharge: High-Resolution Observations and Modeling Description: Lightning is comprised of a variety of processes over a multitude of scales including the initial breakdown stage, fast streamer-based breakdown, leader steps, space stems and space leaders, needles from the lateral surface of hot leader cores, recoil leaders, return strokes, and M-components. Lightning channels promote energy exchange between plasma and neutral atmosphere generating reactive chemical species that drive atmospheric chemistry. In recent years, substantial instrumentation advances have been made in optical, radio-frequency, and energetic radiation imaging of the lightning channels' initiation, propagation, and attachment to ground structures, as well as the return stroke and the subsequent processes taking place inside its decaying channels. Additionally, theoretical modeling of streamers, leaders, and the return stroke has evolved to a stage where direct comparisons between model and observations are now possible. We seek abstracts on natural and laboratory observations, modeling, and theoretical efforts dedicated to advancing our community?s understanding of lightning physics. Location: AGU23 will take place this coming December 11-15 in San Francisco, CA, USA & online Submit an abstract to this session: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/184298 The deadline for all submissions is Wednesday, August 2, 2023, at 23:59 Eastern Time.

Ring Current Dynamics and Its Coupling with Other Particle Populations Message-ID: Dear Colleagues, We invite you to submit contributions to the ring current session at the 2023 AGU Fall Meeting (San Francisco, CA 11-15 December 2023). Abstracts submission link is here: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/183910. The submission deadline is *August 2nd. * *SM021. Ring Current Dynamics and Its Coupling with Other Particle Populations* The terrestrial ring current is comprised of ions and electrons ranging from ~1 keV to several hundred keV and plays an important role in regulating the energy density and magnetic field configuration of the magnetosphere. Abrupt changes in this ion population are responsible for global decreases in the Earth's surface magnetic field, known as geomagnetic storms. The storm-time ring current is thus linked to harmful space weather effects, which have motivated the study of its formation, dynamics, decay, and coupling with other particle populations. The instability of ring current plasma provides free energy for various waves, which can heat or pitch-angle-scatter various other plasma populations and result in plasma energization or loss via precipitation. We invite presentations of theoretical studies, numerical modeling and observations on research progress of the ring current dynamics, wave-particle interactions, and the coupling between ring current system and particle populations in other regimes.

The forcing of these regions and the many different processes involved vary over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales, hindering accurate determination of these fundamental parameters critical to satellite operations and radio communications. Past and current space missions, field campaigns, as well as theoretical and modeling advances, have led to a new understanding of how and why the dominant drivers of upper atmospheric composition, winds, and temperatures in these regions change over different spatial and temporal scales. This session, therefore, seeks to highlight various topics surrounding middle and upper atmospheric composition, wind, and temperature measurements, their variability, and the prominent mechanisms that drive their spatial, seasonal, and inter-annual variability from theoretical, observational, and modeling perspectives. We look forward to your contribution to our AGU session. Please note that the abstract submission deadline is Wednesday, 02 August 2023 at 23:59 EDT/03:59+1 GMT. Thank you.

More info below. Session Description: Large-scale electric fields play an important role in the dynamics of inner magnetospheric particle populations including the plasmasphere (eV), ring current (keV), and lower-energy radiation belt particles (100s keV - 1 MeV). Generation mechanisms for the large-scale electric field include magnetospheric convection driven by the solar wind, magnetosphere-ionosphere (MI) coupling processes such as sub-auroral polarization streams (SAPS), and dipolarization fronts associated with substorms. Various empirical (e.g., Volland-Stern) and physics-based (e.g., RCM, CIMI) electric field models have been used to model the inner magnetospheric plasma populations, and work remains to match electric field models to in-situ electric field measurements and to capture the particle dynamics over a wide range of energies. This session invites submissions covering studies related to data-model comparisons for electric field models, particle simulations using these models and the development of new models that capture the spatial and temporal variability of the inner magnetospheric electric field.

The Importance of Kinetic Alfv?n Waves for Microscale Physics *Session Description:* Kinetic Alfv?n waves (KAWs) play significant role in space plasma dynamics at microscale, i.e., at scale length of ion gyro radius or electron inertial length. In Earth?s magnetosphere, KAWs play an important role in energy transfer processes from magnetic-reconnection at magnetopause and magnetotail to dipolarization fronts and auroral dynamics, which is also observed in outer planet magnetosphere. In heliospheric turbulent plasmas, KAWs are thought to be a critical pathway for energy dissipation at microphysical scales. Spacecraft missions such as THEMIS, Cluster and MMS at Earth, while Solar Orbiter and PSP in solar wind and Cassini and Juno at Saturn and Jupiter are increasingly capable of examining KAWs and their effects in various regions of heliosphere. Further, as simulation capabilities increase, and theoretical boundaries are pushed, novel progress is being made to understand basic KAW physics. This session invites studies related to theory, observations and simulations of KAWs throughout the heliosphere. *Abstract Submission Deadline:* Wednesday, 2 August 2023 23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT We look forward to receiving your contributions and thank you very much for your attention.

More info below. Session Description: The ionosphere-thermosphere (IT) is hardly ever a mirror image of the other hemisphere even when considering differences due to season and Earth's magnetic field. Among others, neutral density and plasma distribution, exhibit interhemispheric asymmetries (IHA) on temporal scales from hours to seasonal. Forcing from both magnetosphere-ionosphere (MI) coupling and lower atmosphere can contribute to IHA but it is still not well understood. The effect of the strong high latitude energy deposition on the IT system can be modulated by the background atmospheric state which is strongly affected by the vertical coupling to the lower atmosphere. Meanwhile, during meteorological disturbed conditions, strong variations in the wave spectrum and the background conditions lead to significant changes in the mesosphere-lower thermosphere (MLT) and IT system. In this workshop we solicit studies based on observations and/or models to improve our understanding of the generation (from both above and below) and impacts of IHA.

Session Title SA013 - Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere Coupling during Disturbed Times https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/186746 Session Description Determining effects of energy deposition and transport across regions and different spatial and temporal scales during disturbed times such as storms and substorms is an important objective in the mid and high-latitude M-I-T system. Coupling across scales is also a critical challenge since observation and modeling capabilities for bridging scales are limited. This session solicits presentations on a wide range of coupling processes in the M-I-T system from global to local processes. Relevant topics include but are not limited to (1) density and temperature structures (polar cap patch, cusp, plume, trough and irregularities); (2) convection (flow channels and SAPS) and currents; (3) energy transfer and deposition by precipitation, conductivity, aurora (cusp, substorm, STEVE and proton aurora), and heating; (4) ion-neutral interaction (thermospheric density and wind), and (5) driving from and feedback into the magnetosphere (including waves and instabilities). Discussions by all means of observations, modeling and data science are encouraged.

Session Title: SA021 - The Geospace Dynamics Constellation (GDC): Research Goals, Opportunities, and Instrumentation Session Description: GDC is a six-satellite constellation, designed to investigate the dynamics of the coupling between the ionosphere and thermosphere, with two primary goals: (1) understand how the high latitude ionosphere-thermosphere system responds to variable solar wind/magnetosphere forcing and (2) understand how internal processes in the global ionosphere-thermosphere system redistribute mass, momentum, and energy. Its orbital configuration will allow, for the first time, coverage of the full range of temporal and spatial scales in the I-T system. We invite presentations describing the GDC instrumentation and interdisciplinary science planned. In addition, presentations on possible investigations using the GDC measurements in conjunction with other data sources and modeling efforts are solicited, including ideas for synthesizing the vast amounts of data engendered. We also solicit presentations on current missions and potential future missions that are synergistic with GDC, as well as presentations focused on the societal and industrial benefits, such as communications and orbital drag.

Many models and applications consider the effects of ionospheric refraction, magneto-ionic splitting, plasma and neutral collisions, scintillation, traveling ionospheric disturbances, sporadic-E, spread-F, and land-surface interactions. Recent advances in computational power, as well as data collection, storage, and distribution capabilities, have led to an improved ability to include these effects at a higher fidelity, and modern digital signal processing techniques have led to an improved ability to assess the utility of including them. This session seeks contributions covering advancements in measurement, modelling, and prediction techniques pertinent to the interaction of radio waves with the ionosphere in either a skywave or transionospheric propagation mode. Contributions highlighting improvements in our ability to include and understand the Earth?s interactions with these propagation modes are especially encouraged.

More info below. Session Description: The ionosphere-thermosphere (IT) region is strongly driven by the lower atmosphere as well as by the sun and solar wind/magnetosphere interaction. However, the strong spatio-temporal cross-scale, cross-regime coupling in this region are poorly understood due to lack of critical measurements. To improve this situation, we must develop a coordinated international "Ionosphere-Thermosphere-Mesosphere Great Observatory" (ITM-GO) effort, consisting of coordinated comprehensive ground-based and space-based observations alongside advanced theory/modeling efforts. The Geospace Dynamics Constellation (GDC) mission, a critical ITM-GO element, will provide the first quantitative assessment of the global IT responses to solar and magnetospheric inputs. The concurrent Dynamical Neutral Atmosphere-Ionosphere Coupling (DYNAMIC) mission will observe critically important dynamics in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere and the IT forcing by the lower atmosphere. This session calls for presentations on research investigations that will be enabled by GDC and DYNAMIC. Strategies for coordinated ground- and space-based observational and modeling investigations are also encouraged.

As an integral part of planetary atmospheres, ionospheres are tightly coupled with the neutral atmosphere, exosphere and surrounding plasma environment, possessing rich compositional, density, and temperature structures. The interaction among neutral and charged components affects atmospheric loss, neutral winds, photochemistry, and energy balance within ionospheres. This session invites abstracts concerning remote and in-situ data analysis, modeling studies, comparative studies, instrumentation and mission concepts for weakly magnetized solar system bodies. Topics such as dayside and nightside ionospheric characteristics and variability, ion-neutral coupling, and responses of the ionized and neutral regimes to transient space weather events are especially encouraged.

Session Description: The high latitude ionosphere is a critical region in magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere coupling. It is where magnetospheric forcing, including electric field, auroral precipitation, and field-aligned currents, directly drives ionospheric plasma convection, Joule heating, and ionization. It also serves as a significant source of terrestrial plasma to the plasma sheet and ring current regions. Mass transport via ion outflow can significantly alter reconnection rates, and hence, global dynamics of the magnetosphere. This session aims to share recent investigations concerning mesoscale ionospheric structures and their impacts on global geospace mass circulation, particularly during stormtime. Speakers are invited to share modeling and observational advancements of mesoscale ionospheric structures with relevance on ion outflow and magnetospheric mass loading. You may submit an abstract to our session through the following link: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/188162 The submission deadline is 2 August, 2023 at 2359 EDT.

We hope that you will consider submitting an abstract. We want to promote all aspects of the intersection between XR and earth science, including technology development as well as specific applications and technology demos. The AGU Fall Meeting will be held at Moscone Center in San Francisco, December 11-15 2023. Meeting registration information is available here: https://www.agu.org/Fall-Meeting/Pages/Attend/Register Registration is required to present at the conference. Session information can be found here: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/185935 Abstracts are due by Wednesday, 2 August 2023. Session Abstract: The value of ?3D visualization in science is well-established and widely appreciated, yet a cohesive set of best practices for moving from scientific data to virtual, mixed or augmented reality visualizations has yet to emerge. The same is true of data sonification, which has been used in several fields but is rarely considered as part of the scientist's toolkit for data expression. This session will bring together practitioners who have used ?3D visualization techniques in research and education contexts. We seek demonstrations, methods and discussions of how ?3D visualization, including sonification and haptics, is used to explore and express data; how these experiences can be accessible, available, and adaptable; and how to bridge the gap from demonstrations to everyday tools. We particularly welcome live demos - bring a headset! - including Valve Index, Microsoft Hololens, HTC Vive, Quest Pro, Google Cardboard, holographic projection, binaural sound, stereoscopic images, or mobile AR. We hope you can join us in San Francisco! Best regards, Kristina, Alex and Jaime -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The Next Frontier in Climate Science. Cross-listed with SY, GC, and A. Geospace, the region of Earth?s atmosphere from the mesosphere to the exobase, is experiencing long-term change due to increasing carbon dioxide. These effects have been predicted for several decades and are now becoming apparent in multiple data records. The cooling of Geospace is anticipated to result in a contraction of the atmosphere and result in a permanent reduction of density at fixed altitude. Variable solar activity complicates the assessment of Geospace change. The ongoing change in Geospace has implications for the growing space economy, international space policy and law, and the space insurance industry. We welcome papers on all topics related to Geospace change. In particular, we solicit papers related to numerical/computer modeling of the effects of long-term change, observation requirements, and new technologies for systematic investigation of Geospace change. We particularly welcome contributions from members of the space industry to discuss their needs for knowledge of Geospace change. Marty Mlynczak, NASA Langley Research Center, Primary Convenor.

The Importance of Kinetic Alfv?n Waves for Microscale Physics *Session Description:* Kinetic Alfv?n waves (KAWs) play significant role in space plasma dynamics at microscale, i.e., at scale length of ion gyro radius or electron inertial length. In Earth?s magnetosphere, KAWs play an important role in energy transfer processes from magnetic-reconnection at magnetopause and magnetotail to dipolarization fronts and auroral dynamics, which is also observed in outer planet magnetosphere. In heliospheric turbulent plasmas, KAWs are thought to be a critical pathway for energy dissipation at microphysical scales. Spacecraft missions such as THEMIS, Cluster and MMS at Earth, while Solar Orbiter and PSP in solar wind and Cassini and Juno at Saturn and Jupiter are increasingly capable of examining KAWs and their effects in various regions of heliosphere. Further, as simulation capabilities increase, and theoretical boundaries are pushed, novel progress is being made to understand basic KAW physics. This session invites studies related to theory, observations and simulations of KAWs throughout the heliosphere. *Abstract Submission Deadline:* Wednesday, 2 August 2023 23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT We look forward to receiving your contributions and thank you very much for your attention.

While this session is cross listed in SPA and ED, it is intended to showcase the use of sounding rockets in all fields of space research and education. Relevant submissions from any area are encouraged. Please note that the abstract submission deadline is Wednesday, 02 August 2023 at 23:59 EDT/03:59+1 GMT. Session Link: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/191938 Session Description: Sounding rockets have been key to many areas of scientific research from atmospheric science to solar and space physics, astronomy, planetary and exoplanetary sciences, and even biology. Early scientific sounding rocket programs following World War II led to the formation of research groups at universities, industry, and government labs and the foundation of NASA itself. Sounding rockets are vital to the development and testing of technologies and methodologies used in satellite and deep space missions. In addition, sounding rocket programs have trained, and continue to train the next generation of scientists and engineers who go on to play vital roles in larger space missions. Sounding rockets also enable new, smaller institutions to start an instrument program, thus increasing the opportunities for diversity and growth in space research. This session solicits presentations on the past, present, and future roles and uses of sounding rockets in scientific research, education, and diversity.

Dynamic Exospheres of Terrestrial Bodies through the Solar System.? Session Description: The exosphere is the only atmospheric layer ubiquitous in all terrestrial bodies. Their composition, energy, and density distribution can provide important insight into atmospheric photochemistry (Venus), atmospheric evolution timeline (Earth, Mars, Venus, Titan), surface composition via interactions with the Sun (Mercury, Earth?s moon, the Jovian Moons), and space weather effects through coupling with the solar wind and the local plasma environment (Jovian moons, Earth, Mars, Titan). This session focuses on investigations of exospheres of terrestrial bodies throughout the solar system. Specifically, topics on physics- and data-based modeling of exospheres, remote sensing techniques that include space- and ground-based UV and visible light observations, inversion methods to retrieve density distributions, studies of the interaction of exospheres with local plasma populations (e.g., solar wind, ring current, plasmasphere, partial ionospheres), estimations of atmospheric escape rates with orbit position and solar activity, and presentations of current and upcoming missions focused on exospheric measurements are encouraged.

Reconnection between the Earth?s magnetic field and the interplanetary magnetic field transfers mass, energy, and momentum to the magnetosphere. The solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field vary spatially and temporally, leading to both uncertainties and time-varying magnetospheric response. For example, various modes of dayside reconnection lead to momentum transfer within the magnetosphere and the polar ionosphere, which drives convection. Within the coupled magnetosphere-ionosphere, the time-history of the system determines the processes which dominate the energy pathways. During geomagnetic storms or substorms for example, electrodynamic processes can behave non-linearly, which complicates the response of magnetosphere-ionosphere system. Substorms and geomagnetic storms are well-studied phenomena but the processes and physics that drive them remain poorly understood. This session brings together different perspectives on the global time-varying processes which govern the system-science energy pathways, sources and sinks of Earth?s magnetosphere-ionosphere to exchange ideas and build an improved understanding. Abstracts are due 2nd August 2023. AGU 2023 will be held in San Francisco & Online over December 11 - 15, 2023.

The forcing of these regions and the many different processes involved vary over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales, hindering accurate determination of these fundamental parameters critical to satellite operations and radio communications. Past and current space missions, field campaigns, as well as theoretical and modeling advances, have led to a new understanding of how and why the dominant drivers of upper atmospheric composition, winds, and temperatures in these regions change over different spatial and temporal scales. This session, therefore, seeks to highlight various topics surrounding middle and upper atmospheric composition, wind, and temperature measurements, their variability, and the prominent mechanisms that drive their spatial, seasonal, and inter-annual variability from theoretical, observational, and modeling perspectives. We look forward to your contribution to our AGU session. Please note that the abstract submission deadline is Wednesday, 02 August 2023 at 23:59 EDT/03:59+1 GMT. Thank you.

We invite all Lightning Physics enthusiasts to submit an abstract to our session. Details below. Title: AE007 - Physics of Streamers, Leaders, and the Lightning Discharge: High-Resolution Observations and Modeling Description: Lightning is comprised of a variety of processes over a multitude of scales including the initial breakdown stage, fast streamer-based breakdown, leader steps, space stems and space leaders, needles from the lateral surface of hot leader cores, recoil leaders, return strokes, and M-components. Lightning channels promote energy exchange between plasma and neutral atmosphere generating reactive chemical species that drive atmospheric chemistry. In recent years, substantial instrumentation advances have been made in optical, radio-frequency, and energetic radiation imaging of the lightning channels' initiation, propagation, and attachment to ground structures, as well as the return stroke and the subsequent processes taking place inside its decaying channels. Additionally, theoretical modeling of streamers, leaders, and the return stroke has evolved to a stage where direct comparisons between model and observations are now possible. We seek abstracts on natural and laboratory observations, modeling, and theoretical efforts dedicated to advancing our community?s understanding of lightning physics.

Information regarding the session is provided below. The session focuses on the role mesoscale processes in the plasma sheet and ionosphere play in mediating interactions across geospace. For those interested, we hope you consider contributing and submit an abstract. Abstracts are due on Wednesday, August 2, 2023. https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/191224 Session ID: 191224 Session Title: SM006. Global and Micro-Scale Consequences of Mesoscale Magnetotail Dynamics Section: SPA-Magnetospheric Physics Session Description: Much of the plasma and magnetic flux transport in the magnetotail occurs in the form of transient flow enhancements. They carry significant northward magnetic field intensifications and may cumulatively account for a large portion of the entire earthward flux transport. This alone makes them fundamentally important elementary building blocks of magnetospheric dynamics. These mesoscale structures also play a significant role in the energization of plasma sheet particles, the build-up of the ring current and radiation belts, current generation, kinetic wave generation and particle scattering. Additionally, they mediate magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling through energy deposition from the magnetosphere to the ionosphere. It is thus important to characterize both global and micro-scale consequences of these mesoscale dynamics. This session solicits contributions using in situ and/or ground-based observations along with theory and global or regional models that incorporate mesoscale processes to examine their impacts.

This session organized by members of SpectrumX, The NSF Spectrum Innovation Center is seeking presentations from all members of the scientific community to provide a forum to present and discuss harmful interference and the impact on scientific observations. Session Title: A119. Stories of Radio Frequency Interference from the field and their Impact on Science Session Description: Scientific use of the electromagnetic spectrum is critical for the advancement of knowledge across a wide range of disciplines including astronomy, earth and atmospheric science, space physics and more. With the continuing growth of wireless technology from 5G to 6G and NextG coupled with unprecedented and rapid growth in broadband satellites and IOT devices, the chances have rapidly increased for use conflicts through such events as in-band and adjacent band interference, along with an overall growth in background noise through aggregate interference. It is important for the community to understand the impact of this increase in commercial usage of the radio spectrum on scientific discovery. We invite researchers to share their stories of harmful interference and its impact on their science. This session will serve as a forum to exchange information regarding emerging interference challenges, and to discuss potential mitigation strategies that preserve scientific use.

Students and early career researchers are especially encouraged to present. Please find the full session description below. Ionospheric irregularities are the main source of radio scintillation that adversely affect transionospheric propagation including Global Navigation Satellite Systems. Scintillations are the most severe at low- and high-latitudes which are conducive to instability mechanisms pertaining to the magnetic field orientation. These irregularities with characteristic scales of the order of several hundred meters to a few kilometers in conjunction with larger-scale density perturbations impact radio and radar systems relying on the ionospheric reflections at HF frequencies. The generation mechanisms producing these irregularities are controlled by the background density, electric fields, plasma drift, neutral winds, and particle precipitation. We invite both modeling and observational (remote and in situ) studies pertinent to advancing our understanding of the role of various mechanisms and processes for the generation of ionospheric irregularities and their propagation impacts including scintillation, bending, and range delays.

Impulsive reduction and recovery of solar radiation drive photochemical and dynamic changes in the Geospace system. Numerous solar eclipses' (August 21, 2017, July 2, 2019, December 14, 2020, etc.) have been observed recently. Additionally, two more eclipses will pass through continental North America providing multi-instrument observations on October 14, 2023 and April 8, 2024. Some of the questions this session seeks to address include eclipse-induced waves, thermospheric composition and temperature changes, hemispheric conjugate effects, and magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere coupling. We invite community members to report modeling and observational results from past eclipses, preliminary results from October 2023 campaigns, and plans for the April 2024 eclipse investigations.

We would like to draw your attention and invite you to consider submitting an abstract to the SM026 session in SPA-Magnetospheric Physics at the AGU Fall Meeting, 2023 to be held in San Francisco, CA, 11-15 December, 2023. *Session Title:* SM026. The Importance of Kinetic Alfv?n Waves for Microscale Physics *Session Description:* Kinetic Alfv?n waves (KAWs) play significant role in space plasma dynamics at microscale, i.e., at scale length of ion gyro radius or electron inertial length. In Earth?s magnetosphere, KAWs play an important role in energy transfer processes from magnetic-reconnection at magnetopause and magnetotail to dipolarization fronts and auroral dynamics, which is also observed in outer planet magnetosphere. In heliospheric turbulent plasmas, KAWs are thought to be a critical pathway for energy dissipation at microphysical scales. Spacecraft missions such as THEMIS, Cluster and MMS at Earth, while Solar Orbiter and PSP in solar wind and Cassini and Juno at Saturn and Jupiter are increasingly capable of examining KAWs and their effects in various regions of heliosphere. Further, as simulation capabilities increase, and theoretical boundaries are pushed, novel progress is being made to understand basic KAW physics. This session invites studies related to theory, observations and simulations of KAWs throughout the heliosphere. *Abstract Submission Deadline:* Wednesday, 2 August 2023 23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT We look forward to receiving your contributions and thank you very much for your attention.

Data streams from magnetometers, imagers, interferometers, and others have been identified by the PROSWIFT Act as critical national needs. Local measurements, such as GIC data, can provide situational awareness, validation metrics, and input to models. Consistent availability of quality data requires the long-term maintenance of these sensor arrays, but the path forward to support ground-based infrastructure over time is certainly not a simple problem. This session solicits presentations that discuss (1) products, alerts, and forecasts that rely on ground-based data, (2) the current state and utility of existing ground-based sensor networks, (3) data quality and processing algorithms, and (4) potential solutions for maintaining these crucial sources of data.
