that is continuously forced by thermosphere tides and waves that are able to
vary the regional and global distribution of the plasma density and seed plasma
instabilities. Recently, the mid-latitude ionosphere has also been identified
as a region that has an unsettled character due to the development of plasma
instabilities (MSTIDs) and the high control that prompt penetration electric
fields and the disturbed dynamo exert on the neutral wind and current system.
We solicit presentations dealing with recent advances on the stability,
dynamics and the MIT coupling of the low and/or mid latitude ionospheres using
active or passive radio diagnostics during quiet and disturbed magnetic
conditions. We also seek presentations that emphasize the importance of
multiple-sensor measurements, regional coverage, and continuous (24/7)
operations. Presentations addressing conjugate observations using networks of
instruments, coordinated distributed observatories, or others that combine
ground- and satellite-instrumentation are also welcome in this session. This
session will also discuss future plans in observing mid- and low-latitude
aeronomy with various radio instrumentation and planned coordinated radio
observations.</span></p><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#6aa84f"><b><i>.................</i></b></font><div><font color="#6aa84f"><b><i>Babatunde</i></b></font></div><div><font color="#6aa84f"><b><i><br></i></b></font></div><div><font color="#6aa84f"><b><i>Professor Babatunde Rabiu</i></b></font><div><font color="#6aa84f"><b><i>Centre For Atmospheric Research,<br>National Space Research and Development Agency NASRDA </i></b></font></div><div><font color="#6aa84f"><b><i>Kogi State University Campus, Anyigba, Kogi State, Nigeria</i></b></font></div><div><b><i><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)"></span><br style="color:rgb(0,153,0)"></i></b><b><i><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">Alternate email: </span><a href="mailto:tunderabiu@yahoo.com" target="_blank">tunderabiu@yahoo.com</a></i></b><b><i><br><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">Telephone: +234 8030705787</span></i></b></div><div><b><i><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)"><a href="http://www.carnasrda.com/" target="_blank">www.carnasrda.com</a>; <a href="http://www.afgps.org/" target="_blank">www.afgps.org</a></span></i></b></div><div><br></div><div>Headquarters Address: </div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">National Space Research and Development Agency </span>NASRDA </div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">Km 17 Umaru Musa Y'Ar'dua Road (old Airport Road), </span><br style="color:rgb(0,153,0)"><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">Abuja, Nigeria</span><br><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">..........</span><br style="color:rgb(0,153,0)"><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">"Righteousness exalts a nation.........."- Holy Scriptures</span><br style="color:rgb(0,153,0)"><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)">"You can never soar like eagles if you are surrounded by turkeys"- Anonymous</span><br></div></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,153,0)"><br></span></div><div><font color="#009900">ORCID ID:- <a href="https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2734-5389" target="_blank">https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2734-5389</a></font><br></div><div><br></div><div><font color="#ff0000">Researchgate: <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/profile/A_Rabiu" target="_blank">https://www.researchgate.net/profile/A_Rabiu</a></font></div></div></div></div></div><div class="gmail_quote"><br></div><p></p>
