This session will be held between 15:30 - 17:00pm on December 10 (Sunday before the AGU meeting) at the Hilton Garden Inn - New Orleans Convention Center, 1001 S Peters St, New Orleans, LA70130. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">We hope both GEM and CEDAR scientists to join our session, sharing and discussing their recent results in the MI, IT, or MIT field. This session will create synergy between the two communities and help to advance our physics-based understanding of the global MIT system. The detailed session description can be found at the following website:</div><div class=""><a href="http://aten.igpp.ucla.edu/gemwiki/index.php/FG:_3D_Ionospheric_Electrodynamics_and_Its_Impact_on_the_Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere_Coupled_System" class="">http://aten.igpp.ucla.edu/gemwiki/index.php/FG:_3D_Ionospheric_Electrodynamics_and_Its_Impact_on_the_Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere_Coupled_System</a>.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If you are interested in giving a talk, please send the title of your talk to Hyunju Connor at (<a href="mailto:hkconnor@alaska.edu" class="">hkconnor@alaska.edu</a>).
