CEDAR email: 2022 ISR summer school application deadline (20 April 2022)

[shikha Raizada]

Hello all,
      The 2022 Incoherent Scatter Radar (ISR) Summer School will be held
in-person only at Boston University between *July 17-22, 2022*. The summer
school’s goal is to train students in the theory and concepts of incoherent
scatter radar, and allows for hands-on opportunities to design and run
experiments at ISR facilities. This year’s school will focus on
mid-latitude / subauroral observations using the Millstone Hill ISR,
operated by MIT Haystack Observatory as part of the NSF supported Millstone
Hill Geospace Facility. ISRs are the most powerful ground based tools for
ionospheric remote sensing with high temporal and altitudinal resolution.
ISR data sets include measurements of electron density, electron and ion
temperatures, and plasma drifts, with the possibility of further derived
parameters. More details about school lectures and the application
procedure can be found at the following web site:

The overall aim of the ISR school is to provide a ‘hands-on’ learning
experience in small groups, and includes substantial interactions with
instructors.

We encourage graduate/advanced undergraduate students to apply for the
school. Those candidates who are selected for the 2022 ISR summer school
and are enrolled at U.S. Universities/institutions will receive travel
support and accommodation to attend this event. Self-funded students from
other countries are welcome to apply as well.

The 2022 ISR summer school is funded by the US National Science Foundation
(NSF) through its Geospace Facilities Program within the Geosciences
Directorate, and is organized by the University of Central Florida.

The deadline for application submission is* April 20, 2022.*

Notice of acceptance will be sent to participants by *May 1, 2022*.
