CEDAR email: Workshop Announcement: A Strategic Vision for Incoherent Scatter Radar - April 26-27, 2021

[Anthea J Coster]

Workshop Announcement:   A Strategic Vision for Incoherent Scatter Radar.  Virtual/Online:  April 26-27, 2021

This online workshop will conduct interactive discussions to both define a vision that incorporates community views on the most important objectives for future incoherent scatter (IS) radar facilities and to develop a strategy for pursuing them. The ultimate goal of this workshop is to generate a draft program plan for delivery to U.S. NSF Geospace leadership and the forthcoming US NASEM Decadal Survey. The plan will address key scientific and technical aspects of future IS radar facilities including those key scientific frontier areas where IS radar techniques and observations are

The workshop will be held on April 26 and 27, 2021 (afternoons Eastern Standard Time).  The program will include six serial sessions, each composed of two anchor talks followed by a moderated discussion. The workshop agenda is available here:  http://landau.geo.cornell.edu/workshop.pdf

A high priority for the organizing committee is to include early career researchers and graduate students in the field.  Accordingly, we strongly encourage faculty to invite their graduate students/postdocs to actively participate in the workshop.
