*PITHIA-NRF Trans-National Access (TNA) Open Call*

PITHIA-NRF <https://pithia-nrf.eu>(Plasmasphere Ionosphere Thermosphere 
Integrated Research Environment and Access services: a Network of 
Research Facilities) invites applications for access to a variety of the 
*best **European**research facilities* (nodes) for studies and modelling 
of physical processes acting in the Earth’s upper atmosphere, with 
support from experts within the field. There are twelve nodes within 
PITHIA-NRF all dedicated to investigating the plasmasphere, ionosphere 
and/or thermosphere.

The access can be *physical access* (one-week visit with travel and 
accommodation included) or *remote access* (one-month remote access with 
weekly support). The available services or resources are limited, and a 
competitive process is required following a defined procedure and 
criteria for the selection of users.

*Project opportunities:*

Project opportunities and description of the nodes are available at the 
information page 
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/pithia-nrf-users/tna/tna-calls/fourth-tna-call>. 
We encourage any potential applicants to discuss with the relevant node 
about the project before submitting their proposals. The TNA Support 
Centre <mailto:tna at pithia-nrf.eu> at PITHIA-NRF can help establishing 
contact points with the nodes.

*When?*

This spring 2023 call is running from *15 January 2023* until *15 
June**2023*. It is an *O**pen Call* and applications will be handled as 
they arrive to streamline the timelines of the projects.

*Who?*

Access is provided for science projects to users from Academia, Small 
and Medium Enterprises, Industry, and Public Organisations.

*How?*

The application should be filled in and submitted using the online form 
<https://pithia-nrf.eu/forms/tna-application-form-4>. After submission,
