Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to submit an AGU abstract to the co-organized (SM/A/AE/SA/SH
sections) session on "Geospace Research from Polar Environments: A Focus on
Interhemispheric Conjugacy and Asymmetry”. More detailed information can be
found on the website at

SM011: Geospace Research from Polar Environments: A Focus on
Interhemispheric Conjugacy and Asymmetry


Session Description:

The uniqueness of polar regions for conducting geospace research has been
acknowledged for decades. This is because instrumentation located at
high-latitudes allows access to a natural laboratory for studying the
Earth’s atmosphere, its space environment, and solar-generated
interplanetary structures. Given that the polar regions are critical for
geospace research, the interhemispheric conjugacy and asymmetries in the
polar regions remain an area fraught with unknowns and open questions,
representing a barrier to understanding the
thermosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere system. These interhemispheric
features may manifest in a number of ways, including auroral patterns,
induced electrical currents, geomagnetic field geometry, ionospheric
electrodynamics, ion-neutral coupling, temperature and winds in the neutral
atmosphere, and more. This session solicits papers on recent advances in
space physics, aeronomy and space weather focusing on interhemispheric
conjugacy and asymmetries in polar regions. Studies discussing observations
or modeling results that place polar dynamics in global context are highly
encouraged.


Sincerely,

Hyomin Kim, Andrew Gerrard, Daniel Welling, Karl Laundal
