From sdattaba at iit.edu Tue Nov 1 08:21:17 2022 From: sdattaba at iit.edu (Seebany Datta-Barua) Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2022 09:21:17 -0500 Subject: CEDAR email: Fwd: [Ext] Release of 3rd tranche of deprecated Trimble NetRS instruments In-Reply-To: <6988138B-2386-4759-98DE-8FAF00D816B3@unavco.org> References: <6988138B-2386-4759-98DE-8FAF00D816B3@unavco.org> Message-ID: ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Glen Mattioli Date: Mon, Oct 31, 2022 at 2:16 PM Subject: [Ext] Release of 3rd tranche of deprecated Trimble NetRS instruments To: Dear Colleagues, UNAVCO is pleased to announce a third opportunity for community members to request deprecated end-of-life, end-of-service Trimble NetRS instruments. The first opportunity was announced and executed in late 2017 and the second opportunity was announced and executed in late 2019, based on approval from the NSF to make Trimble NetRS GPS instruments that are no longer in service available to UNAVCO community members. This announcement represents the release of a third tranche of deprecated Trimble NetRS instruments. Similar to the 2017 and 2019 opportunities, these instruments were in the EAR and OPP receiver pools and geodetic networks operated by UNAVCO for NSF. The largest number of instruments are from upgrades to the GAGE Facility Network of the Americas (NOTA) stations, which have been replaced with new, state-of-the-art multi-constellation GNSS instruments. In 2017 and 2019, the Geodetic Infrastructure Advisory Committee (GI AC) recommended criteria and a protocol for distribution. Both the 2017 and 2019 actions were also approved by the UNAVCO Board of Directors. This process was reviewed, modified, and endorsed again by the GI AC during its October 13-14, 2022, meeting and approved by the UNAVCO Board during its October 27-28, 2022, meeting. UNAVCO no longer has any geodetic antennas for this third release. Requests will only be accepted through the UNAVCO Project Support Request website. Only instruments that are currently functioning will be made available to the community. Note that all allocations will be made caveat emptor; no UNAVCO repair or warranty services will be provided. The deprecated instruments, some other auxiliary equipment, will be allocated as outlined below. The following protocol and guidelines for prioritization were established in 2017; these remain in place for the third tranche of instruments, with some minor modification: 1) The opportunity to request Trimble NetRS receivers will be open to all UNAVCO Member and Associate Member academic institutions. In addition, UNAVCO will also consider applications from non-member, US principally undergraduate institutions that currently have or would like to establish GPS data acquisition as part of the curriculum. 2) Interested PIs must submit the request and a 400 word summary of the intended use of the requested instruments (at https://med.unavco.org/newproject/supportform.aspx select ?Deprecated Trimble NetRS GPS receivers" and enter text under ?Project Description/Goals"). This justification should describe clearly and succinctly whether the instruments will be used to support teaching, research, or both, and how many and what type of student (e.g. undergraduate or graduate) would be impacted. 3) Data and metadata collected in support of any research activities will be submitted by PIs to the UNAVCO archive for long-term curation. 4) The minimum filled request will be for 5 receivers for any individual PI, with the maximum cumulative requests being up to 20 receivers. If needed and requested, UNAVCO will attempt to provide dongles (power and communications), etc. Requests by specific PIs for more than 20 receivers may be considered by UNAVCO senior management, if a compelling case is made for a specific project. 5) All shipping costs are to be borne by the institution granted an allotment of GPS instruments and any associated additional equipment; successful applicants will be contacted for a FedEx number. 6) Instruments are being provided ?as is? with no explicit or implicit future obligation by UNAVCO for continued support or maintenance. UNAVCO will begin reviewing applications received through the PSR system on Wednesday, November 2, 2022 and plans to make the first allotment of instruments available beginning Wednesday, November 16, 2022 with the goal of completing the third tranche by Friday, December 30, 2022.

Please check the meeting website at https://www.iugg2023berlin.org/home-2/ for details. We draw your attention to this session that would be of interest to the SCOSTEP/PRESTO community *Session: JA05 Solar Influence on the Atmosphere and Climate (Joint IAGA & IAMAS)* Conveners: Christoph Jacobi, Luc Dam?, Odele Coddington The session description is copied below. Two important deadlines: Abstract submission deadline is 14 February 2023 ( https://www.iugg2023berlin.org/abstract-submission/); Early registration is 28 April 2023 but all authors are required to register by 6 April 2023 to be included in the final program. Description The role of the Sun?s influence on past climate as well as in future climate variability keeps attracting much interest presently. State of the art climate models now include a well resolved stratosphere and mesosphere. This allows the prediction of global climate and its changes taking into account expected solar related variability, particularly in the ultraviolet, at short to long time scales. In the middle and upper atmosphere solar related electromagnetic and particle variability is one dominant forcing mechanism for atmospheric variability at time scales from days to decades. In this session we aim to stimulate discussion on the solar variability that drives Earth-system change on time scales from days to centuries. We welcome results from observations, including observations of solar radiation, theoretical work and modeling efforts that facilitate the implementation of solar irradiance in Earth science applications and that quantify meteorological and solar effects on the lower, middle, and upper atmosphere. We also welcome discussions on new missions or observational means to address these issues. Advances in reconstructing past climate and in projecting future climate considering the role of extraterrestrial forcing are also desired.

G. Mlynczak, Viktoria Sofieva, Petr ??cha, Laura de la Torre? Link:?https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/?821 (https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU23/sessionmodification/46821)? ? Evidence of the impacts of climate change on the middle and upper atmosphere is increasing, making clear the critical need for observational data to monitor and understand trends. For example, a contraction of the stratosphere has been quantified, but we still face significant limitations on the data available to assess it. Past efforts to study trends have focused mainly on the atmospheric levels separately (mesosphere, thermosphere, ionosphere), where cooling and contraction have also been observed. Monitoring these trends and their impacts on satellites and space debris needs a continued effort, providing better data and improved insight into the consequences that increased carbon dioxide has on the middle and upper atmosphere. ? We encourage abstract submissions concerning long-term as well as short-term changes to the structure of the atmosphere, its parts or localized circulation phenomena and underlying mechanisms. We especially welcome presentations about existing data, data gaps and measurements to monitor trends in the middle and upper atmosphere and the impacts, for example, changes of the drag on space objects. Also, studies evaluating and documenting underlying causes and modelling or projecting changes of these mechanisms are particularly welcomed. Two important deadlines: Abstract submission deadline is?10 January 2023, 13:00 CET.

IAGA symposia A06: Energetic Particle Precipitation Impacts on the Ionosphere, Upper Atmosphere, and Climate System Convener(s): Mark Clilverd (UK), Craig Rodger (New Zealand), Pekka Verronen (Finland) The IUGG General Assembly is to be held over 11-20 July 2023 at the Messe Berlin ? City Cube, Berlin, Germany. Description of A06: This symposium is targeted at both satellite and ground-based and experimental observations, as well as theoretical investigations, into the precipitation of energetic particles into the D-region ionosphere and below - along with the impact of the energetic precipitation on the upper atmosphere and the coupling of these impacts on the climate system. Particle precipitation into the atmosphere is one of the mechanisms for energetic electron loss from the Van Allen radiation belts. This is particularly significant during and after geomagnetic storms, when the loss rate, and the source population, can both increase. Submissions describing other examples of energetic particle precipitation affecting the mesosphere and stratosphere, for example solar proton events or hard-spectrum substorm precipitation, are also relevant for this symposium. Papers considering the precipitation drivers, the nature of the particle fluxes, the impact of the precipitation on the ionosphere or atmosphere, and the climate system response are welcome. Results from the SPARC?s SOLARIS-HEPPA community, as well SCOSTEP's PRESTO programme are solicited. More information can be found on the IUGG website: https://www.iugg2023berlin.org/ Timeline: 14 February 2023 Submission deadline 17 March 2023 Abstract acceptance sent to participants We already have invited speakers lined up on the topics of the use of POES electron precipitation fluxes for climate modelling, microburst-produced precipitation caused by whistler mode chorus, precipitation of MeV energy range electrons by EMIC waves observed by ELFIN, and substorm energetic electron precipitation impacts on the atmosphere. Please submit an abstract and join in the fun! We look forward to seeing you in Berlin.

Abstract submission: https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU23/session/46343 (the deadline is Tuesday, 10 January 2023, 13:00 CET) ST4.2 - Nowcasting, forecasting, operational monitoring and post-event analysis of the space weather and space climate in the Sun-Earth system Session details: Space Weather (SW) and Space Climate (SC) are collective terms that describe the Sun-Earth system interactions on timescales varying between minutes and decades and include processes at the Sun, in the heliosphere, magnetosphere, ionosphere, thermosphere and at the lower atmosphere. Prediction of the extreme events (forecast and nowcast) and development of the mitigation strategy are vital as the space assets and critical infrastructures, such as communication and navigation systems, power grids, and aviation, are all extremely sensitive to the external environment. Post-event analysis is crucially important for the development and maintenance of numerical models, which can predict extreme SW events to avoid failure of the critical infrastructures. This session aims to address both the current state of the art of SW products and new ideas and developments that can enhance the understanding of SW and SC and their impact on critical infrastructure. We invite presentations on various SW and SC-related activities in the Sun-Earth system: forecast and nowcast products and services; satellite observations; model development, validation, and verification; data assimilation; development and production of geomagnetic and ionospheric indices. Talks on SW effects on applications (e.g. on airlines, pipelines and power grids, space flights, auroral tourism, etc.) in the Earth?s environment are also welcomed.

The project is part of a NASA-funded DRIVE Science Center for Geospace Storms, which is a large, vibrant, highly collaborative, interdisciplinary research team led by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory focusing on simulation, modeling, data analytics, machine learning, and uncertainty quantification (UQ) of the geospace system. Virginia Tech will contribute new approaches, based on UQ, for more aggressive and effective pathways toward improvement of the Multiscale Atmosphere-Geospace Environment (MAGE) model developed by CGS. CGS seeks to apply advances in modeling, simulation, and analysis capabilities afforded by increased computational power to augment and maximize the scientific understanding; this position will focus on identifying and exploiting inadequacies in the dynamics of the model to improve simulation in a structured manner. Skills acquired will be highly transferable. We envision the postdoc will leverage these efforts to creatively advance simulation and prediction in the broadest sense, interacting and contributing to prediction science activities across Virginia Tech. Questions about this position can be email to Professor Leonard Smith ( lennys at vt.edu, Subject: Space Weather Postdoc).
