CEDAR email: EGU2022 Call for abstracts ST3.3 - Electromagnetic Energy Input to the Earth’s Ionosphere-Thermosphere System and its Impacts

[Billett, Daniel]

Dear CEDAR community,
We would like to invite you to submit abstracts to our upcoming session at the EGU General Assembly 2022, which will be held in Vienna, Austria, from 3-8th April 2022. The abstract submission deadline is 12th January 2022, 13:00 CET.

Session:
ST3.3 - Electromagnetic Energy Input to the Earth’s Ionosphere-Thermosphere System and its Impacts
Abstract:
Solar wind-magnetosphere interactions play a large role in depositing electromagnetic energy into Earth’s mid to high-latitude atmosphere. This energy, often quantified in terms of the Poynting flux, is responsible for large-scale ionospheric features such as plasma convection, field-aligned currents (FACs) and the auroral oval, but also small to meso-scale features like substorms and sub-auroral polarization streams (SAPS). The ionosphere is, in turn, coupled to the neutral thermosphere, resulting in its composition and dynamics varying on many spatial and temporal scales. Given the wide-reaching impact of the solar wind-magnetosphere energy source, there is still much that is not well understood about its effect on the Earth’s upper atmosphere.

In this session, we invite both observational and modelling contributions relating to magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere coupling across all scale sizes. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the morphology and magnitude of Poynting flux, auroral dynamics during both storm and non-storm times, the structure and morphology of FACs and ionospheric convection, thermospheric density structures, ion-neutral interactions, and inter-hemispheric asymmetries.
---------------------------------------------
The session is planned to be in-person. EGU2022 is however accommodating virtual attendees with the opportunity for all speakers to upload presentation materials online.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any question about the session. We look forward to seeing your contributions and yourselves in Vienna!

Sincerely, conveners

Jade Reidy (British Antarctic Survey)
Ivan Pakhotin (University of Alberta)
