<p>Dear Colleagues,<br>
</p>
<p>Please consider submitting an abstract to the session focused on
investigating space weather phenomena on multiple scales using
networks of instruments. We invite presentations about results
from existing networks of instrumentation, modeling needs for data
on various scales that can be achieved using networks, and planned
future networks to measure multi-scale geospace processes. <br>

Multi-scale Space Weather Discoveries Enabled Through

<p><strong>Session ID#: </strong> 13435</p>
<h5>Session Description:</h5>
<div class="sessionItem">An outstanding challenge in the upper
atmospheric research is specifying the state of the
space-atmosphere interaction region in both time and space; a
limitation manifest by level of variability that often rivals the
value of the mean state. Investigating ionospheric storm response
and plasma-neutral coupling processes over global, regional and
local scales is challenging. We have made significant progress in
addressing these challenges, but often at local scales. There is a
need for multi-scale observations of various parameters
simultaneously through innovative observational networks, in the
form of distributed arrays of instrumentation.
<p>Such networks provide the insight and validation required to
understand global-scale processes such as TIDs, energy transport
during geomagnetic storms, coupling between atmospheric regions,
with associated variability. We will discuss results from
existing networks, science enabled from regional and global
observations, new large-scale observational networks, and invite
the modeling community to discuss required regional and global
measurements required.</p>
