*EMRP2.5**session summary:*

/Launched in November 2013, the ESA Earth Explorer Swarm satellite trio 
has provided, for one solar cycle, continuous accurate measurements of 
the magnetic field, accompanied by plasma and electric field 
measurements, precise navigation, and accelerometer observations.
The polar-orbiting Swarm satellites are augmented with absolute magnetic 
scalar and vector data from the low-inclination Macau Science Satellite 
1 (MSS-1, since May 2023, 41° inclination, covering all Local Times 
within 2 months) and with absolute scalar field measurements from the 
CSES satellite (since 2018, fixed 02/14 LT near-polar orbit) which 
significantly extend the data coverage in space and time.
In addition, the ESA Scout NanoMagSat constellation consisting of one 
near-polar and two 60° inclination satellites, is now also in the 
pipeline, with a sequence of launches planned to start at the end of 
2027 for full operation in 2028. It will acquire absolute vector 
magnetic data at 1 Hz, very low noise scalar and vector magnetic field 
data at 2 kHz, electron density data at 2 kHz and electron temperature 
data at 1 Hz. It will also acquire navigation data, enabling top-side 
TEC retrieval, and collect ionospheric radio-occultation profiles.

This session invites contributions on investigations in geomagnetism, 
ionospheric and thermospheric sciences related to Earth and near-Earth 
processes, with focus on existing and planned Low-Earth-Orbiting 
satellites. Combined analyses of satellite- and ground-based or model 
data are welcome./


We look forward to your valuable contributions and appreciate your 
attention and interest.


Sincerely yours,
the session conveners
Martin Fillion, Jose van den IJssel, Claudia Stolle, and Nils Olsen
