Dear colleagues,

We solicit presentations at the 2020 AGU Fall Meeting on a variety of
issues in the M-I-T system, particularly on processes during storms and
substorms.

Session Title:
SA011. Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere Coupling during Storms and
Substorms
https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm20/prelim.cgi/Session/104466

Session Description:
Determining the effects of energy deposition and transport, and momentum
exchange across different spatial and temporal scales during disturbed
times such as storms and substorms is an important objective in the M-I-T
system. Coupling over multiple scales is also a critical challenge since
observational and modeling methodologies for bridging different scales do
not presently exist. This session solicits presentations on a wide range of
coupling processes in the M-I-T system from global to local processes.
Relevant topics include (but are not limited to) (1) density structures and
temperature gradients (polar cap, cusp, plume, trough, irregularities); (2)
convection (flow channels, SAPS, penetration electric field) and FAC; (3)
energy transfer and deposition by precipitation, conductivity, aurora, and
heating; (4) inter-hemispheric processes and (5) coupling and feedback into
the magnetosphere. Discussions of relevant multi-scale observations by
means of multiple instruments, including space and ground-based, modeling
and data science are encouraged.

Best regards,
