Second call for abstracts:
Workshop on Whole Atmosphere Coupling during Solar Cycle 24
July 14-17, 2013 
National Central University, Jhongli, Taiwan

In recent years, there has been a dramatic increase in interest on the impact of both upwards and downwards vertical 
coupling on the Earth’s atmosphere at various heights, as well as on the near-Earth space environment. Issues such 
as solar cycle influences on the lower, middle, and upper atmosphere, as well as wave driven phenomena propagating 
from the lower to the upper atmosphere and ionosphere, such as atmospheric tides and various planetary and gravity 
waves have highlighted the need for interdisciplinary cooperation between researchers in different atmospheric 
regions.

To address this need, we invite atmospheric and space scientists currently involved with, or interested in coupling 
processes within the Sun-Earth system to attend the Workshop on Whole Atmosphere Coupling during Solar Cycle 24, 
to be held from July 14-17, 2013 at National Central University, Jhongli, Taiwan. This workshop focuses on building 
the interdisciplinary foundation required to understand these coupling processes as we progress through Solar Cycle 
24, and is supported in part by funding from Task Group 4 of the CAWSES-II (Climate and Weather of the Sun-Earth 
System) research program.
