CEDAR email: Deadline for early bird registration: 23 Oct 2014, IMC III workshop March 23-27, UCLA

[Yuri Shprits]

The third Inner Magnetosphere Coupling (IMC-III) workshop will be held at
the University of California, Los Angeles on March 23 – 27 (Monday –Friday),
2015. The IMC-III workshop will bring together researchers to examine and
discuss the strongly coupled inner magnetospheric system and how
disturbances from the Sun can propagate to the inner magnetosphere,
radically altering the plasma and wave distributions, and ultimately
influence the ionosphere and upper atmosphere. The meeting will follow the
format of the previous two IMC meetings (IMC-I in Espoo, Finland in 2008 and
IMC-II at UCLA in 2012) and will be organized around a set of discussion
topics each led by discussion leaders. The workshop focuses on open and
informal discussion, with each speaker's presentation being followed by an
equal length discussion time.
