[Philip Erickson]

CALL FOR PAPERS:  2013 URSI National Radio Science Meeting
January 9-12, 2013, Boulder, Colorado.

The DEADLINE for online submission of abstracts is SEPTEMBER 21, 2012.

Commission G special session: "Space Plasma Measurement Techniques"
Organizers:
      Phil Erickson (G) (pje at haystack.mit.edu)
      Tom Gaussiran (G) (gauss at arlut.utexas.edu)

This session will cover all aspects of measurement techniques for plasma
parameter determinations in the space environment.  Papers are solicited
on a broad range of subjects related to the use of radio waves
for passive and active remote sensing of geospace plasmas, including
ground based and space based platforms.  Appropriate topics include
experimental and data analysis developments and novel techniques
involving inversion, imaging, interferometry, optimal transmission 
waveforms, and related subjects.  We especially encourage papers 
addressing those applications, concepts, and architectures with 
transformative potential for remote sensing.

The DEADLINE for online submission of abstracts is Friday, September 21,
2012.  The meeting web page, http://nrsmboulder.org, contains general
information, abstract submission instructions and guidelines.  All
abstracts for the URSI 2013 meeting must be submitted online. Please
