The<br class="">Swarm mission aims to provide the best-ever survey of the geomagnetic<br class="">field and its temporal evolution, covering a wide variety of Earth<br class="">processes, ranging from the geodynamo to the<br class="">magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere coupling using a constellation of<br class="">3 identical satellites carrying sophisticated magnetometers and electric<br class="">field instruments. This session invites contributions illustrating the<br class="">achievements of Swarm for investigating all types of Earth and<br class="">near-Earth processes, as well as contributions describing synergies with<br class="">other missions and ongoing initiatives towards designing innovative new<br class="">low-Earth orbit (LEO) magnetic field missions.</body></html>
