<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Please join us at the <b>Scientific Discovery in the Heliosphere Through Data Analytics and Assimilation</b> session to be convened at the Triennial Earth-Sun Summit (TESS) meeting (20-24 May 2018, Leesburg,
Virginia). <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We are at a crossroads in the study of the Heliosphere. Traditionally we rely on methods ruled by the triumvirate of models, data, and model-data fusion. However new data analysis techniques developed and
applied in other fields present powerful new opportunities for scientific discovery.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">These data analysis techniques have been explored primarily in fields unrelated to Heliophysics, yet promise significant potential for Heliophysics science. This cross-disciplinary session is devoted to new
Heliophysics discovery driven by innovative techniques pioneered in other fields of study. We invite contributions from across the Heliophysics domain (i.e., the Sun, interplanetary space, magnetosphere, and upper atmosphere), encouraging bold, thought-provoking,
and innovative ideas to utilize the vast amount of heterogeneous Heliophysics data.

<a href="https://connect.agu.org/tess2018/home">connect.agu.org/tess2018/home</a>, brings together the Solar Physics Division of AAS with the Space Physics and Aeronomy section of AGU. TESS-2018 will be held 20–24 May 2018 in Leesburg, Virginia to promote greater
interaction and unity within Heliophysics as well as fostering connections to astrophysics and planetary sciences. The TESS-2018 abstract submission deadline is 20 February 2018.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
