Dear colleagues,

We invite you to submit an abstract to the Fall 2023 AGU Session
SM028: Time-varying Processes in the Energy Pathways of Earth’s Magnetosphere-Ionosphere.
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. More info about the 2023 Fall AGU Meeting
