CEDAR email: Call for Abstracts: SA009 Geospace System's Response to Solar Eclipses

[Sebastijan Mrak]

Dear Friends,

We are calling for abstracts for the SA009 Solar Eclipse session at the upcoming AGU Fall Meeting. Please find the full session description below:

The focus of this session is the Geospace system's response to solar eclipses. Impulsive reduction and recovery of solar radiation drive photochemical and dynamic changes in the Geospace system. Numerous solar eclipses' (August 21, 2017, July 2, 2019, December 14, 2020, etc.) have been observed recently. Additionally, two more eclipses will pass through continental North America providing multi-instrument observations on October 14, 2023 and April 8, 2024. Some of the questions this session seeks to address include eclipse-induced waves, thermospheric composition and temperature changes, hemispheric conjugate effects, and magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere coupling. We invite community members to report modeling and observational results from past eclipses, preliminary results from October 2023 campaigns, and plans for the April 2024 eclipse investigations.

Regards,
Sebastijan, Saurav, Shayne, and Kevin
