CEDAR email: 2022 UCAR/NCAR Summer Programs for Space Weather and Heliophysics

[Kendra Greb (she/her)]

Join us for two excellent opportunities to broaden and deepen your
understanding of
Space Weather and Heliophysics, and to connect with the broader space
physics community.

Boulder Space Weather Summer School (website
<https://www2.hao.ucar.edu/SWSS>)

Hosted by HAO/NCAR and Sponsored by NSF

Application Deadline: *Friday, April 29, 2022*

When/Where: July 18 – 29, 2022, in person Boulder, CO (circumstances
permitting).

Who: Graduate students starting their research careers in space physics as
well as selected undergraduate students interested in exploring the topic.

Theme:  The physics of space weather and its impacts on the space
environment, space craft, astronauts and ground based systems. Deepen your
conceptual understanding of space weather and the physics behind using
fundamental physics principles, spacecraft and ground based data, and model
results. Learn from leading researchers in the field and experts in
forecasting space weather. Meet other students working in the field.

Description: The Boulder Space Weather Summer School (SWSS) is a two-week
program, funded by NSF and hosted by HAO, that gives students a
comprehensive introduction to the science of space weather: what it is,
what it does, and what can be done about it.

Heliophysics Summer School (website
<https://www2.hao.ucar.edu/spectropolarimetry>)

Hosted by UCAR/CPAESS and Sponsored by NASA

Application Deadline: *Friday, May 6, 2022*

When/Where: August 1 – 12, 2022, run remotely.

Who: Advanced graduate students and postdoctoral researchers who want to
broaden their understanding of fundamental processes across all disciplines
of heliophysics.

Theme:  Connecting the Heliosphere: Using Global Models to Connect In-situ
and Remote Sensing Data Throughout the Heliosphere.

Description: During this two-week NASA funded summer school hosted by UCAR,
participants will:

   -

   dive into physics connecting global models to remote and in-situ
   measurements,
   -

   learn from leading experts in the field,
   -

   use prototype visualizations tools to recreate data from a spacecraft
   flying through the magnetosphere,
   -

   connect with other early career researchers.


Heliophysics relies on the data collected through in-situ instruments on
spacecraft—such as Solar Probe, MMS, and DMSP—to provide point
measurements, remote-sensing observations such as solar imagery from SDO
and DKIST, and measurements of the upper atmosphere and space environment
from ground-based radar and the GOLD spacecraft. Global models allow us to
bridge the gap between these measurements and understand the implications
for the whole system. This Summer School will explore the various types of
models (global MHD, kinetic, and general circulation) across all the
domains of heliophysics (solar, heliosphere, magnetosphere, and
thermosphere/ionosphere) and their relationship to observations.
