Enabled by the fleet of solar- and heliospheric-dedicated spacecraft with the capability of detecting them remotely and/or in situ, CMEs and their interplanetary counterparts have been characterized with increasing detail throughout the years. Nevertheless, several aspects of CMEs remain elusive, including their three-dimensional magnetic configuration, mainly due to limitations inherent to remote-sensing and in situ observations. Still, they provide valuable pieces of information that have high potential to shed light in this respect. The study of CME morphology on the basis of remote-sensing observations is an approach to that end, since it holds a close relationship with the CME magnetic field configuration. Findings on CME morphology are key for the interpretation and modeling of in situ observations of these events at multiple spacecraft. In particular, the extent of CMEs, expansion rates along orthogonal directions, departures from the archetypical flux rope structure, and factors affecting the characterization of CME morphology will be addressed.

The Swedish MATS satellite (Mesospheric Airglow/Aerosol Tomography and Spectroscopy) was launched in November 2022. The aim of the mission is to investigate atmospheric gravity waves. These waves efficiently connect the Earth?s high atmosphere (the mesosphere) to our nearest space environment (the lower thermosphere). The main instrument on MATS is a telescope that images the mesosphere / lower thermosphere in several wavelength channels in order to determine the properties of atmospheric gravity waves. In close collaboration with other members of the MATS team, the doctoral student will analyse data in relation to atmospheric dynamics and space environment properties. A central aim is to better understand the interactions between atmosphere and space. The Ph.D. student position concerns full-time employment for a period of four years.

(Norway) Date: Wednesday, November 1, 2023 Time: 3:00 p.m. ET / 1900 UTC Abstract: Michael Buonsanto possessed a remarkable ability to synthesize scientific insights from measurements produced by a wide range of instruments. His work was founded on three key pillars: scientific collaborations, innovative analysis techniques, and the synthesis of observations with modeling and theory. This lecture will provide a subjective review of the progress in radio remote sensing instrumentation and measurement analysis techniques over the past two decades, highlighting the enduring impact of Michael?s contributions. Additionally, the lecture will endeavor to forecast the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. ====== For more information on this year?s lecture, including an abstract and speaker bio, please see https://www.haystack.mit.edu/buonsanto The 2023 Buonsanto Lecture will be held both in person and online via Zoom. The zoom link for viewing this year can be found on the speaker series page above. Please RSVP to Heidi Johnson at MIT Haystack [heidij at mit.edu] if you plan to attend in person. We hope to see you in November! Regards, Phil About the Buonsanto lecture series: Dr. Michael J. Buonsanto (1952?1999) was a key member of the Atmospheric Sciences Group at MIT Haystack Observatory from January 1988 until his sudden and untimely death on 21 October 1999. As an MIT Principal Research Scientist, he made many important scientific contributions to studies of the Earth?s upper atmosphere, and was an outstanding and cherished colleague, mentor, and friend. In his honor, MIT Haystack Observatory has established an annual memorial lecture on space science topics at the forefront of the atmospheric science research field. ----- Philip Erickson (he/him), Ph.D. Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences Group MIT Haystack Observatory Westford, MA 01886 USA email: pje at haystack.mit.edu WWW: http://www.haystack.mit.edu voice: +1 617 715 5769 fax: +1 781 981 5766 Public key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x54878872 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If you operate or plan to operate instruments in Antarctica, assimilate Antarctic data into your models (e.g., obtained via databases such as MADRIGAL or SuperMAG), or otherwise require southern hemisphere measurements for your data analysis and modeling, please consider responding to this form. Custom responses are preferred, but please also feel free to use this sample text under the ?Please describe the impact of NSF?s announcement on your science??: ?Antarctica is an essential Earth-based region for achieving an understanding of geospace phenomena and physical processes in Earth?s polar regions. Only on Antarctica can the highest geographic and geomagnetic regions of Earth be reached and studied with instruments. Without frontier measurements in Antarctica ? and theory and models derived from such measurements ? comprehensive understanding of Earth?s upper atmosphere and ionosphere (space weather around Earth) would not only be incomplete, but would be impossible to achieve.? Thank you so much for the support!

The access is organised through the Trans-National Access (TNA) programme, and provides an opportunity for researcher and other users to execute and carry out their own projects at one of the twelve PITHIA-NRF research facilities. You can get information on the */PITHIA-NRF Nodes/* here and view details on PITHIA-NRF assets by accessing the */PITHIA-NRF Knowledge Book/* here . *What?* The PITHIA-NRF nodes provide access to key experimental and data processing facilities for studies and modelling of physical processes acting in the Earth?s plasmasphere, ionosphere and thermosphere. The facilities connected to the nodes are geographically distributed over Europe, as well as internationally, and their expertise and dedication span over a wide range of topics within the research area. Users can request either *physical access*?(one-week visit at the node with support at site) or *remote access*?(one month access from distance with weekly support). Users with granted projects will learn how to work with the facilities during the full access cycle, from setting up a campaign, to collection, analysis and finally exploitation of data. *When?* The call is an *Open Call* - applications are handled as they arrive with evaluation times of 2 to 3 weeks. The call closes on *30 November 2023*. *Who?* Access can be requested by scientific users from academia, Small and Medium Enterprises, large companies and public organizations. *How?* The application is made by using the online form .

One program we would like to highlight is the AGU mentoring program (https://www.agu.org/learn-and-develop/learn/mentoring-programs/mentoringprograms), which includes Mentoring 365, Mentoring 365 Live, and Circles. These programs will offer excellent opportunities to find a mentor who can provide guidance on your career. Even if you cannot make it to the conference in person, Mentoring 365 still provides a chance to connect with AGU scientists virtually. Additionally, the AGU College of Fellows Mentoring Network is another group mentoring opportunity that helps broaden networking opportunities for early career scientists starting professionally in the Earth and space sciences. We also want to remind you of the AGU flight program (https://flightschool.agu.org/), which aims to provide conference guidance for student attendees to AGU. Unfortunately, registration is now at full capacity. However, we encourage you to take advantage of such a resource in future AGUs. Lastly, there will be social events such as the Space Physics and Aeronomy Gathering and Student and Early Career Mixer to meet peers and scientists at this year's AGU. During the registration process, you can add a ticket for these events. We hope to see all of you there. Best wishes, AGU student committee (https://connect.agu.org/spa/committees/overview) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
