*PITHIA-NRF Trans-National Access (TNA) 1^st Call*

PITHIA-NRF (Plasmasphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Integrated Research 
Environment and Access services: a Network of Research Facilities) 
invites applications for access to a variety of research facilities for 
studies and modelling of physical processes acting in the Earth’s upper 
atmosphere, with support from experts within the field. There are twelve 
nodes within PITHIA-NRF all dedicated to investigating the plasmasphere, 
ionosphere and/or thermosphere.

The access can be *physical access* (one-week visit with travel and 
accommodation included) or *remote access* (one-month remote access with 
weekly support). The available services or resources are limited, and a 
competitive process is required following a defined procedure and 
criteria for the selection of users.

*Project opportunities:*

Information of project opportunities and description of the nodes are 
available at https://pithia-nrf.eu/tna/tna-calls/fisrt-tna-call 
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/tna/tna-calls/fisrt-tna-call>. We encourage any 
potential applicants to discuss with the relevant node about the project 
before submitting their proposals. The TNA Support Centre 
(tna at pithia-nrf.eu <mailto:tna at pithia-nrf.eu>) at PITHIA-NRF can help 
establishing contact points with the nodes.

*When?*

The call is open from *15 July 2021* until the deadline *30 September 
2021*. The application can be submitted at any time between these dates.

*Who?*

Access is provided for science projects to users from Academia, Small 
and Medium Enter­prises, Industry, and Public Organisations.
