Abstract deadline: Friday 16th February (end of business) Meeting Date: 8th March 2024, planned start time: 10.30; latest planned end time: 15.30 (UK time). Location: Burlington House, London. Hybrid option confirmed. To submit an abstract please fill in the following form: https://forms.gle/TFtvniB2GvvNyMQS6 As is customary for RAS SDMs, you will have to register for the meeting separately through the RAS. We will send out a reminder when registration has opened. Fellows can register for free both online and in person, for non Fellows the RAS charges ?5 online and ?15 for in person attendance.

About the meeting: Earth?s ionosphere is the boundary between space and the atmosphere. It holds a special importance in models of the Ionosphere-Thermosphere (IT) System because plasma interactions with the magnetic field of the ionosphere become intertwined with the neutral dynamics of the thermosphere and atmosphere. In the context of global whole atmosphere models in particular, the IT system builds the top layer and is responsible for holding the information of solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere interactions. At high latitudes, the IT dynamics are driven by the solar wind and magnetospheric responses to solar wind driving, whereas at mid to low latitudes, the electric dynamo interactions and tides dominate. Modelling these interactions and dynamics is challenging, but important to the provision of the boundary conditions for modelling the entire atmosphere. These challenges are compounded by limited observations of the IT system. The dynamics of the solar wind results in a varying degree of activity in the ionosphere, especially at high- to mid-latitudes. During a geomagnetic storm for example, the energy input into the mesosphere and thermosphere is much higher than during quiet times, which changes atmospheric composition in those regions. It is important to capture these dynamics to advance models for space and/or terrestrial weather and climate purposes. This comes with great challenges due to the varying observations available. The thermosphere, for example, is difficult to measure in-situ due to orbital constraints, and ground-based observations can be sparse due to geographical constraints and lack of vertical resolution. Furthermore, scale-sizes and cadences of observations vary drastically. This makes it difficult to infer physical interactions and build global empirical models, and so challenges model validation efforts. The aim of this discussion meeting is to bring together modellers and observers of the IT system and the atmosphere, as well as researchers interested in advancing our modelling capabilities, to discuss recent scientific findings, modelling advances and future plans.

International Polar Years are major international, interdisciplinary, coordinated research efforts in polar regions. They?ve led to significant advances in geospace research, infrastructure improvements, and transformations in how we share data. Planning for the fifth International Polar Year 2032-2033 has begun ( https://iasc.info/cooperations/international-polar-year-2032-33), and it?s essential for the CEDAR community to participate in planning efforts to ensure that geospace research is a key part of the IPY5 program. In previous IPY?s, planning documents were used to inform programming at NSF, NASA, and other agencies. This is no less important in IPY5, with opportunities for campaigns with several major satellite missions and ground-based networks, experiments related to a rare polar total eclipse in Alaska on 30 March 2033, and numerous opportunities for interdisciplinary and international collaborations. Planning for IPY5 is primarily coordinated by two international organizations: the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC, https://iasc.info/) and the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR, https://scar.org/). There are several ways to contribute to IPY5 plans via these organizations: *IASC is currently preparing for the Fourth International Conference on Arctic Research Planning (ICARP IV, https://icarp.iasc.info/). As part of the ICARP IV process, anyone can use online forms to submit resources ( https://icarp.iasc.info/engagement/submit-resources) and research priorities (https://icarp.iasc.info/engagement/icarp-iv-survey) for IPY5 programs and Arctic Research more broadly. The deadline to submit feedback is March 1, 2024, and the ICARP IV meeting itself would be held one year later, 21-28 March 2025 in Boulder, Colorado. *SCAR will hold a meeting in Pucon, Chile on 19-24 August 2024 with discussions related to IPY5 and future plans for Antarctic research more broadly: https://www.scar2024.org/ *Many countries have representatives on both IASC ( https://iasc.info/about/organisation/council) and SCAR ( https://scar.org/about-us/leadership/delegates) who can be contacted to submit ideas/resources for IPY5. Although IPY5 is nearly a decade away, many of the high-level plans and goals will be set in the next ~1-2 years. Please consider providing feedback via one of the methods above to ensure the interests of the geospace/space weather research communities are represented in IPY5.

We kindly invite you to contribute to the session (session description below) and submit an abstract before the deadline February 16, 2024. Submission details you can find here: https://www.cospar2024.org/. Session Title: Preparation for a new ionospheric space weather scale for trans-ionospheric radio wave propagation Main goal is to pave the way for defining a new NOAA Ionospheric Space Weather Scale to augment the current geomagnetic storms (G), solar radiation storms (S), and radio blackouts (R) Scales. The recommendation for a new ?T? scale will target applications and systems that are impacted by disturbances in trans-ionospheric radio wave propagation, such as satellite communication, remote sensing radars, and global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) navigation, positioning, and timing. To reach this goal, broad international discussion and collaboration is required organized by the ISWAT G2B-04 activity initiated by COSPAR. In addition, the Coordinated Ionospheric Study on Scales and Indices (CISSI) established via ISWAT G2B-04 will provide an excellent data base for comparative studies and related conclusions on indices and their application potential. The session will include contributions related to how to combine ground and space-based data sources to maximize data coverage used to drive the new scale, establishing the relationship between the various indices, validation, suggestions for defining the thresholds levels for the scale and occurrence rates, and exploring the inclusion of probabilities. Papers are also encouraged exploring and identifying user needs, and how a new scale would target different user applications.

This support from the NSF has been critical in engaging and training the next generation of CEDAR scientists and preparing them for their careers as scientists. However, it may not always be possible to support all students interested in attending the CEDAR workshop, necessitating a selection process to determine which students will receive support. In order to have a well-defined selection process that is equitable and provides for the fulfillment of the CEDAR program goals of engagement and education, the CEDAR Science Steering Committee (CSSC) has developed guidelines https://cedarscience.org/student-attendance-support for the selection of students for receiving financial support from the CEDAR program to attend the annual CEDAR workshop < https://cedarscience.org/2024-workshop>. We encourage all CEDAR students and their advisers to read the guidelines, and request travel support via the registration site by March 29. Students requesting travel support must submit an abstract by the March 29 deadline. Students receiving workshop attendance support (lodging and/or travel) must present a poster. Students traveling from outside the US and/or enrolled in an institution outside the United States can apply for support which is limited to lodging. Students will be notified by mid April if they have been selected for travel support. ALL STUDENT AIRFARE MUST BE PURCHASED THROUGH CPAESS TRAVEL. REIMBURSEMENTS FOR AIRFARE WILL NO LONGER APPLY.

We are excited to announce the the Workshop of Monitoring Geospace Disturbances from the Ground: Scientific Challenges, Observational networks, and International Collaboration (2024 IMCP Workshop) will be held in S?o Paulo, Brazil, in September 23-27, 2024. Understanding the fundamental geospace processes that shape our solar-terrestrial environment, encompassing the entangled coupling of magnetosphere, ionosphere, upper atmosphere, lower atmosphere and Solid Earth, is a crucial objective for the world Space Weather community as well as a major societal challenge. To properly address this scientific challenge and make progress on space weather specification and forecast capabilities, the development of synergistic uses of ground-based geospace monitoring, space-borne observations and sophisticated modeling tools is mandatory. With major space missions such as SMILE, GDC, and DYNAMIC targeting global geospace system science on the horizon, coordinated operation of world-wide ground-based observation networks over long periods will be critical to study the diverse multi-scale, multi-regions coupling processes impacting geospace at temporal scales ranging from minutes to decades and even longer. Workshop Objectives The main objective of the 2024 IMCP Workshop in Sao Paulo, Brazil is to advocate the unique contributions of ground-based observations and the particular significance of global and regional collaboration in addressing the broad challenges of understanding and monitoring geospace. The Workshop will be the ideal platform to showcase cross-scale and interdisciplinary discoveries, and enhance observational effectiveness through organized networks for ground-based observational coordination. An illustrative example of collaborative global network is the International Meridian Circle Program (IMCP). IMCP focuses on geospace observation and research along the two Great Meridian Circles spanning 120?E/60?W longitudes (encompassing the Asian-Australian, North American, and South American regions) as well as 30?E/150?W Europe-Africa and Central Pacific longitudes. Dozens of observational facilities in the Chinese sectors, as part of the Chinese Meridian Project, constitute one of the cornerstones for the IMCP eastern hemisphere. Scientific Programme The scientific programme of the workshop, which will take place during the peak of the present solar cycle, will cover the broad spectrum of phenomena which contribute in an intricately way to the variability of our space environment: solar and geomagnetic activities, geospace disturbances, atmospheric weather and climate, earth magnetic field variations, and solid earth hazards. Its open format will facilitate in-depth discussions on the sources of space weather variability and modeling of geospacer disturbances, and foster the emergence of new ideas for instrumentation and international coordination using IMCP and other networks. A great venue at a symbolic time Scheduled for the week of September 23-27, 2024, in Sao Paulo, Brazil, the workshop will coincide with the 63th anniversary of the National Institute for Space Research (INPE) and the 10th anniversary of the China-Brazil Joint Laboratory for Space Weather (CBJLSW). This venue, which symbolizes the spirit of collaboration and excellence in space weather research, will be the ideal place for the international community to engage in discussions about geospace disturbances monitoring, space/ground-based coordination, and modeling.

This year's biennial VCAIS (the 9th Vertical Coupling of the Atmosphere-Ionosphere System Mtg) meeting will be a combined meeting with ANGWIN (the 6th ANtarctic Gravity Wave Instrument Network Mtg). It will take place in Fredericton, NB, Canada the first week of June, 2024 (June 2 -7, 2024) and will provide an opportunity to build collaborations between these two active research communities. This workshop will focus on processes that couple the neutral atmosphere layers, the ionosphere and the magnetosphere, and their nature and consequences. This coupling occurs over a range of temporal and spatial scales, varies with location, season and time and is driven by various dynamical, chemical, and electrodynamic processes. The objective of this meeting is to provide a venue for discussions and collaborations between scientists involved in studying the coupling and associated mechanisms linking the atmosphere, ionosphere and magnetosphere. Papers on the observations, data analysis, modelling and theory relevant to all aspects of this coupling are encouraged. While wave processes at all latitudes and heights are of interest, some sessions will have gravity wave processes in Polar Regions as their primary focus. Registration and abstract submission will open on February 1, 2024 and close on April 24, 2024 and May 1, 2024 respectively. There will be some support for early career scientists and students to attend this meeting (application deadline - April 5) and a student workshop on observation techniques and analysis is planned.

A team of atmospheric scientists, physicists, observational and numerical experts are needed to collaborate to address the multidisciplinary aspects of this problem, including impacts on target disciplines and how each discipline will interact within the MURI. Research Concentration Areas: The suggested approach would leverage a diverse team comprised of theoreticians, numerical modelers, and observational experts in neutral atmosphere dynamics, charged atmosphere physics, remote sensing, and numerical modeling. Science should focus on: (1) Identification and characterization of sources, occurrences, and climatology of non-orographic tropospheric gravity wave generation, 2) Mechanics of neutral atmosphere gravity wave propagation, coupling into the mesosphere and evolution, and 3) Sensible effects of gravity waves on charged particle distribution and evolution in the ionosphere. Anticipated Resources: Awards under this topic will be no more than $1.5M per year for 5 years, supporting no more than five funded faculty researchers. Exceptions warranted by specific proposal approaches may be discussed during the white paper phase of the solicitation.
