We would like to draw your attention to the community-driven session: 100CD-05 ? MULTI-POINT MEASUREMENTS IN SPACE FOR SPACE WEATHER APPLICATIONS We encourage you all to submit an abstract to our session by 29th of June (submissions at: https://esww2023.org/submit-an-abstract) and look forward to fruitful scientific exchanges. Best regards, Aur?lie, Lasse and Beatriz ******************** 100CD-05 ? MULTI-POINT MEASUREMENTS IN SPACE FOR SPACE WEATHER APPLICATIONS Session Conveners: Aur?lie Marchaudon, Lasse Clausen, Beatriz Sanchez-Cano Description: Multi-point measurements in space are more and more required in the study of the Sun-Earth relations and their applications in the framework of Space Weather, either to ensure a better discrimination of the spatial and temporal effects as it is the case for example of satellite swarms or joint satellite-rocket measurements or to ensure a better spatio-temporal coverage of a specific study region with in particular satellite constellations. At the two extremes of the spectrum, we find purely scientific missions such as ESA-Cluster, ESA-Swarm, NASA-Themis, NASA-MMS or the future NASA-HelioSwarm and NASA-GDC missions and commercial constellations for which some data used to ensure the attitude of the satellites have been diverted to scientific uses (determination of the Earth?s parallel currents from magnetometers on board the IRIDIUM constellation: AMPERE project). With the emergence of New Space, including the rise of nanosatellites, it becomes possible to consider new multi-point projects to improve the space-time coverage of the Sun-Earth system, in particular, but not only, for the near-Earth environment (radiation belts, ionosphere-thermosphere) and to allow a more global description and a better assimilation of the associated data in the forecasting models of these regions. In this session, we call for all contributions presenting original space projects using multi-point (satellites, cubesat, rockets, and why not balloons or a combination of these different devices), with possible applications for Space Weather. -- Dr. Aur?lie MARCHAUDON IRAP/OMP (CNRS, CNES, UT3) 9 avenue du Colonel Roche BP 44346 31028 TOULOUSE cedex 4 Tel : +33 (0)5 61 55 67 02 Email : aurelie.marchaudon at irap.omp.eu From leslie.lamarche at sri.com Thu Jun 1 10:01:27 2023 From: leslie.lamarche at sri.com (Leslie Lamarche) Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2023 16:01:27 +0000 Subject: CEDAR email: Reminder for talks in "Auroral Science with Heterogeneous Datasets" Message-ID: <3e4f6a570a444f9dba7dffa87332bcb8@PH1P110MB1283.NAMP110.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM> ?Hello 2023 CEDAR attendees!

Please consider volunteering if you have the time on Tuesday or Wednesday during the scheduled poster sessions. See the original email below for some details. Thanks (again) to everyone who has already volunteered! Cheers, -MZ =================================================================================================== The 2023 CEDAR workshop student poster competition has a very large number of posters this year and the head judges would like to request volunteers for poster judging activities. The posters are split into mesosphere lower thermosphere (MLT) and ionosphere-thermosphere (IT) categories and we typically ask each judge to review 2-4 posters from one of those categories in addition to participating in deliberations to select winners for that day. The judging process begins at noon on Tuesday or Wednesday of the workshop (depending on MLT vs. IT) and usually lasts roughly until dinner time so it is a substantial time commitment but also a very rewarding experience and important part of the workshop. Judges typically serve for one of these days and should be able to mostly schedule their judging responsibilities around needs to attend specific workshops on that day. If you would like to participate in the judging please email Matt Zettergren (zettergm at erau.edu) and indicate your preference of MLT vs. IT or which day you are available. If possible also indicate a basic area of expertise (e.g. ?thermosphere modeling? or ?radio instruments? etc.) to help us with the assignment process. Thank you very much for your help with this!

For an idea of what this might look like, see the attached image (Figure 4 of Lanzerotti et al, 1987: http://id.nii.ac.jp/1291/00002180/). These maps are intended to serve researchers making interhemispheric comparisons. For an overview of use cases for this, see Mike Hartinger's magnetosphere seminar here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlU5299d6sQ&t=550s They may be used for communicating the importance of Antarctic space weather measurements, education/outreach, planning instrument deployments for conjugate studies, seeing how conjugate points change over time, etc. Some ideas include: - Show locations of major stations, observation locations, etc. to enable at-a-glance interhemispheric comparisons (please send me the geographic coordinates of specific locations you'd like to see on such a map) - Create multiple versions of map from IGRF version in 1990, 2000, 2010, 2020 etc. to see how things have evolved with changes in Earth's magnetic field - Create a similar map that projects Northern Hemisphere regions to Antarctica so to get a better sense of where it's possible to deploy things for conjugate studies (e.g., where major topographic features would impede deployment). - Show eclipse paths (ground and ionospheric elevation), including 2020 polar eclipses and conjugate location of the 2023 and 2024 North American eclipse paths. I am very interested in collecting comments, coordinates and ideas from potential users of these maps. *If this resource is of interest to you, please fill out this survey by 23 June: https://forms.gle/MSgMyoDiwwK28oQC6 * Regards, -Kristina Collins -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This year, the conference will be held in Toulouse, France from 20-24 November 2023. It is now possible to submit abstracts to be considered for both oral and poster presentations, until the 29th of June. Afterwards, abstract submission will only be open for poster presentations, until September 10th, 2023. Abstracts can be submitted via the ESWW2023 homepage: https://esww2023.org/ In particular, we would like to invite you to consider submitting an abstract to the session: SWR-03 - Coupling in the Earth's Magnetosphere, Ionosphere and Thermosphere We look forward to a week of interesting presentations and discussions in November! Best regards, Eelco Doornbos, Yaqi Jin, Lucilla Alfonsi SWR-03 session description: The session focuses on the state-of-the-art understanding of the complex mechanisms ruling the Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere (M-I-T) coupling and how they translate into space weather impacts. Such an understanding is fundamental for the development of effective countermeasures against disruption, failure and deterioration of vulnerable technologies, such as GNSS critical applications, HF/VHF/UHF radio communications and LEO satellites operations. In order to forecast, warn, and mitigate adverse space weather effects, a better understanding of the M-I-T coupling plays a key role. It is essential to improve the prediction of: geomagnetic storm-time behaviour of the occurrence of spread-F, polar cap patches and scintillation phenomena that can degrade navigation and communication systems, thermospheric density variability affecting satellite drag and the enhancement of field-aligned currents, just to mention a few examples. Another crucial aspect of M-I-T coupling is the interhemispheric symmetric/asymmetric response to variable drivers that, if properly predicted, could support regional space weather modelling. Contributed papers may address (but are not limited to) recent developments in modelling and forecasting, monitoring methodologies, data analysis, measurement campaigns and international initiatives related to M-I-T coupling and associated threats on systems, at regional and global scale.

With kind regards, Graciela Molina on behalf of the ISWI Seminar Committee *********************************************** *Title:* Solar Flares and Space Weather *Speaker:* Dr Lucia Kleint *Abstract:* Eruptions on the Sun, called solar flares, are extremely powerful. Their violent nature and influence on Earth were realized in 1859 when English astronomer R. Carrington suddenly saw an unexpected brightening on the Sun. Lasting only a few minutes on the Sun, the event was followed by intense space weather with auroras seen as far south as Hawaii, and by failures of telegraph systems, whose operators suffered from electric shocks. Research in flare physics has determined that the energy stored in the solar magnetic field is powering the eruptions. Particles accelerated during magnetic reconnection events precipitate into interplanetary space, but also towards the solar surface where they cause many observable phenomena, such as heating, mass motions, and emission in the whole electromagnetic spectrum. Large solar eruptions are the main causes of severe space weather events, which can affect satellites and communication. In this presentation, I will give a closer look on the origins of space weather and the current research on solar flares.

TIDs can be driven from above by solar and magnetospheric disturbances, or driven from below by lower atmospheric and surface forcing, including but not limited to tropospheric weather events (hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical cyclones, thunderstorms, etc.), earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, explosions, and spacecraft launches. TIDs generated from different types of sources may exhibit similar or very different characteristics in their spatial and temporal scales, periodicities, propagation speeds and directions. Meanwhile, TIDs generated from the same type of sources may exhibit different characteristics depending on the local atmospheric and ionospheric conditions. Therefore, it remains a challenge to distinguish TIDs from different types of sources in ionospheric observations. We solicit theoretical, observational, and modeling contributions on better understanding of the origins, generation mechanisms, and characteristics of TIDs. In particular, we welcome innovative approaches to identify and differentiate TIDs generated from various sources.

Workshop Monday 30 October - Friday 3 November 2023 ESA ESTEC ? Noordwijk, Netherlands OPEN FOR REGISTRATION AND ABSTRACT SUBMISSION https://www.cosmos.esa.int/web/esa-heliophysics/heliophysics-in-europe-2023 Heliophysics (including space weather) encompasses space plasma physics throughout the solar system, from Sun to the solar wind, planets (including the Earth) and small bodies. Heliophysics has a large and active international community, with significant expertise and heritage in the European Space Agency and Europe. The ESA Heliophysics Working Group acts as a focus for discussion, inside ESA, of the scientific interests of the Heliophysics community, including the European ground-based community and data archiving activities. The ESA Heliophysics Working Group has organised the meeting ?Heliophysics in Europe? to improve communication between the European Heliophysics community and the various ESA directorates involved. The meeting will highlight opportunities existing in those directorates, but also look to identify synergies spanning directorates and possible future coordination efforts. Areas of mutual interest already identified include archiving, data formats and discoverability, as well as improved connection to the modelling and ground-based community. The focus will not be on specific missions, or regions or bodies in the solar system, but in terms of Heliophysics phenomena and processes that cut across ESA. This will allow better connection of all parts of the Heliophysics community (as described above) to all relevant parts of ESA and vice versa. The meeting will be split into the following sessions, each with dedicated discussion sections and posters. Session 1: ESA Heliophysics activities Session 2: Building Bridges in Heliophysics: open questions, missing observations, measurements, models, and investigative techniques Session 3: Building a European Heliophysics network and community hub Session 4: Workshop Reporting, Summary, SWOT discussion and next steps The meeting will run from lunchtime on monday 30 October to lunchtime on Friday 3 November 2023 and will have online connectivity. Registration is open (free) and abstract submission, deadline 15 September 2023. https://www.cosmos.esa.int/web/esa-heliophysics/heliophysics-in-europe-2023 This message is intended only for the recipient(s) named above.

If you do plan on having a virtual component, CEDAR has the following suggestions: - We want conveners to use whatever platform they are comfortable with, but we are encouraging everyone to use Zoom if possible for consistency. - Let your speakers know in advance if you intend to have a virtual component to your session, and if you wish to post a recording. - Post the link to your session (and ultimately the recording) at the top of your session page on the CEDAR website. Please contact UCAR if you are experiencing issues updating your session page. - Post the agenda for your session several days before the CEDAR workshop in order to give attendees enough time to plan their day - Establish meetings such that attendees are muted when they enter the session, and so zoom notification "chimes" are turned off (see here for more info ). - Do not require people to be manually admitted, and hide the "participants window" and "meeting controls". - If there are questions from the in-person audience, either pass around a microphone connected to the zoom session or have the speaker/moderator repeat them for the virtual attendees. - Consider alternating between a few questions from the in-person audience and a few questions from the online audience. - Assign an in-person or online moderator specifically to monitor online activity and questions throughout the session. - Slido can be used to ask and vote on questions anonymously and may encourage student participation. Consider using this (or software with similar functionality) if it makes sense for your session. - To reduce the amount of laptop switching, encourage your presenters to hand in their slides before the session. - If you do have speakers who are switching laptops, make sure they are logged into the virtual session, that virtual participants can hear and see their talk (share their screen), and be mindful of audio feedback (only have one presenter laptop unmuted in the room at a time). - For online presenters, encourage them to arrive a few minutes early to the session to test that the screen sharing of their presentation is working properly. - Test your equipment before the session begins. More general session tips can be found here . Please feel free to reach if you have any questions, and we look forward to seeing you at CEDAR 2023!

Student and early-career contributions are highly encouraged! Abstracts submission link is here: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Home/0 The submission deadline is August 2nd (Wed). Please contact us if you have any questions. Best, Sean Hsu, on behalf of session conveners P034: Planetary rings, meteoroid and dust populations and effects Session ID: 189304 New theoretical and observational studies of planetary rings, meteoroids, and dust. These collections of small particles are sensitive to a wide variety of dynamical phenomena, and so can provide information about the sources, sinks and transport of material. Rings can also encode detailed information about their dynamical environments such as their host planet's gravitational field, while meteoroids and dust interact with larger bodies through surface impacts and atmospheric ablation and therefore contribute to surface weathering or airless bodies and metal deposition in planetary atmospheres. Subjects to be covered include: the structure, dynamics and composition of rings; characterization of dust populations along with their effects on asteroids and spacecraft; dust chemistry; hypervelocity impacts of dust and meteoroids; the interaction of planetary rings with ionospheres, magnetospheres and interplanetary dust; and the origin and evolution of the rings.

It will be a fully hybrid conference. Abstract submission is now open. The deadline for submitting abstracts with a wish for an oral presentation is on Thu, 29 June. Past this deadline, it will be possible to submit an abstract for a poster until 10 September. Information and abstract submission via the ESWW2023 website: https://esww2023.org/plenary-session-description. P01 session description: With space weather and space climate, we seek to understand and mitigate the adverse effects of the space environment on human activities. However, there is a growing awareness of the reverse effect: our activities have a significant impact on the environment in terms of carbon footprint, resource consumption, biodiversity loss and, more globally, the impact of humans on the terrestrial and space environments. These impacts increasingly threaten the sustainability of our activities in space, and human society as a whole. In this session, we invite scientists and stakeholders to share their perception of these critical issues and to present solutions that will allow science to advance in a world of limited resources, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. The goal is to address the diagnosis (how we are impacting the environment), the solutions that have been developed, and the lessons learned. The session will consist of a number of invited and contributed presentations.

Please see below for a few updates on the status of the radars and data availability. RISR-N: As the CEDAR community is aware, there was a fire at the Resolute Bay Observatory (RBO) in September 2022, in which critical radar instrumentation and site power generation capability were lost, along with auxiliary optical and radio instruments hosted at RBO. The recovery effort from this fire is underway. We plan to make RISR-N operational on intermittent basis by September 2023, without continuous site power at RBO. The site power restoration is a larger effort that is also underway with planned implementation by Summer 2025, at which point the site will have the ability to support some auxiliary instrumentation. Once RISR-N becomes nominally operational, we will reach out to the community about a limited number of experiment requests, as it is non-trivial to operate the radar without continuous site power. The data from RISR-N PFISR: The radar located at the Poker Flat Research Range (PFRR) continues to operate nominally and takes data round-the-clock, along with supporting rocket flights from PFRR and various satellite conjunctions. The real time data and experiment schedule for PFISR can be viewed on the AMISR website. Please reach out to me (asti.bhatt at sri.com) if you would like to make an experiment request for PFISR. Data Access: * Data from PFISR and RISR-N can be obtained from the AMISR website as well as from the CEDAR Madrigal database. We are currently transitioning new and historical AMISR data to the new Madrigal3 format. Here is a sneak-peak of what that will look like once fully transitioned. * The new users of AMISR data can benefit from the AMISR user manual that walks you through accessing and plotting the AMISR data. * An analysis ready dataset of PFISR data (Ne, Te, Ti, Vector velocities) is available as an output of DARPA's AtmoSense program. We will share more details about the status of AMISR systems during the CEDAR session - Incoherent Scatter Working Group on Thursday, June 29 from 1:30-3:30pm in the Eastcoast room. We hope to see you there!

Our community includes people with greater potential risks from COVID such as elders, parents of children too young to be vaccinated, people who are immunocompromised, people with respiratory illnesses, and those living with people who are more vulnerable. Additionally, anyone could experience longer term symptoms of COVID-191. Rates of long COVID are estimated to be about 10%, and vaccination reduces but does not eliminate the risk of long COVID2. Repeated infections further increase the risk of organ system damage3 and long COVID4 . Unfortunately, conferences are still high-risk environments for COVID-19 transmission (e.g., the recent, spring CDC conference5). We know that we travel at our own risk, so we invite all those attending CEDAR to join us in creating a safer, more inclusive environment by taking steps to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 and other illnesses during the conference. We can use what we learned during the pandemic to make the CEDAR conference a safer, more inclusive experience. The CEDAR Diversity Equity and Inclusion Committee recommends the following precautions. * Per CDC guidelines5, please isolate and do not attend in-person sessions upon testing positive for COVID-19. We recommend bringing at-home COVID tests as only a limited number of tests will be available at the conference. * If you have COVID-19, or if you share a room with someone who has COVID-19, please contact the workshop organizers for help. * Although masks are not required, wearing of masks is encouraged, especially in crowded areas (such as the plenaries, poster sessions and workshops) to limit the risk of transmission. Well-fitting N95s and KN95s are most effective. * Please wear a mask following a known exposure to COVID-19. * If you see someone wearing a mask, please be courteous and put yours on before approaching them or sitting next to them. * Please consider testing before travel and taking precautions during travel to reduce chances of bringing COVID-19 to the conference. We extend our condolences and wishes for comfort to those in the CEDAR community who have lost family members and friends to COVID-19. We look forward to working together to create a safer meeting for all! Thank you for your consideration!

The LWS program provides an essential funding opportunity for Heliophysics, focusing on systems-science and driven by community interests and needs with potential topics ranging from solar dynamo to planetary habitability. It is vital for the success of the LWS Science program that there be active community engagement in the development of FSTs. We are therefore asking the Heliophysics community to provide input by July 21, 2023 for these topics. Suggested science topics should be organized around achieving the goals set out in the recently revised Strategic Science Areas (SSAs; https://lwstrt.gsfc.nasa.gov/strategic-science-areas-ssas). See Key Resources below for more information. Enter *NEW* FST suggestions by using the following link (on or before July 21, 2023): https://lwstrt.org/communityinput/input/. View Input and Comment on *Roll-over* FSTs *AND* community input in response to this call (on or before July 21, 2023) at: https://lwstrt.org/communityinput/viewinput/2023/ All FSTs suggested by the community prior to and during 2020 that were not selected by NASA for the ROSES 2021 ? 2023 LWS science calls will also be reviewed by the LPAG executive committee. Community input regarding updates to those topics is welcome through the same View Input and Comment page above. For reference, the full list of topics that were developed from the last set of community input on FSTs by the previous LPAG committee in 2020 are available in the final report of that committee at: https://lwstrt.gsfc.nasa.gov/assets/docs/lpag/LPAG_2020_Report.pdf We greatly look forward to your input and to continuing on the path of innovation and scientific exploration in the LWS program.

We are aiming to avoid the death-by-powerpoint approach to meetings, and we are striving for interactive sessions, with many chances for discussion. In the era of burgeoning open science, collaboration is becoming a new currency for progress, and we hope for this meeting to become an annual opportunity to enhance our collective knowledge. Missions and small projects alike are becoming more software and data intensive, so this is a good time to bolster our community and learn from each other. Submissions to the meeting will be captured and archived online as a Zenodo collection. The meeting is Oct 9-11, 2023 and will be in Laurel, MD USA at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab. It is adjacent to the IHDEA (https://ihdea.net) meeting (Oct 12-13, same venue). Abstract submission is now open. Deadline for abstracts is Aug. 31, 2023. http://dash.heliophysics.net https://secwww.jhuapl.edu/EventLink/Event/295 Registration for DASH and the IHDEA meeting will open in July.

We would like to draw your attention to a NSF/ANSWERS student online workshop that is being hosted by Clemson University on July 17, 2023. We welcome students? participation from the CEDAR community to contribute presentations of their work. Comprehensive tutorials will be offered on subjects related to space weather driven from both below and above. ANSWERS Student Workshop Impacts of Atmospheric Waves and Geomagnetic Disturbances on Quiet-time and Storm-time Space Weather 17 July 2023 Online (Zoom link): https://clemson.zoom.us/j/8111381902 Space weather refers to the dynamic changes in near-Earth space caused by complex Sun--Earth interactions. Space weather can pose hazards to electric power grids, telecommunications, spacecraft operations, and astronaut health. The goal of this ANSWERS project is to advance our understanding of how the Earth's Ionosphere-Thermosphere (IT) system changes due to the combined effects of magnetospheric forcing and forcing from the Earth's lower atmosphere, including extreme weather events such as tornadoes, and space storms. Understanding IT system variability is an essential element to predict space weather. Extensive historical and ongoing observational data and state-of-the-art weather and geospace models are being used in this investigation. The goal of this workshop is to facilitate graduate and and undergraduate participation in this research by providing a forum for students to present their own work relevant to space weather impacts and give students an opportunity to learn from tutorials given by the ANSWERS team members and invited speakers.
