Search And Rescue (SAR) operations, disaster response, enforcement of international norms and agreements, and the maintenance of reliable lines of communication at times of high geopolitical tension, all require new communication and sensing strategies that are resilient to disrupting factors: the harsh Arctic operating environment, geomagnetic activity and other natural and anthropogenic drivers of ionospheric disturbance. And our CEDAR community is at the forefront of developing the next-generation predictive models, AI tools, and novel observations to support resilient communication and sensing in a changing Arctic with a rapidly expanding human presence. We are soliciting your help! Planning is underway for the coming IPY, and it must be cognizant of, and leverage, new developments in next-generation predictions of both the terrestrial and space environments, including high-fidelity earth-system and magnetospheric modeling and deep learning approaches. At the same time, Arctic scientific cooperation and diplomacy is being challenged by geopolitical tensions and barriers to open data collection and sharing. Please consider submitting an abstract to our ASSW session on Science for Communications & Sensing in Rapidly Changing Arctic that is planning for the next International Polar Year. Our session is here (#2.4) https://www.assw.info/program/icarp-iv-summit/icarp-iv-summit-sessions/icarp-iv-summit-sessions-accepting-abstracts (for convenience our session description is reproduced below) Our session is part of the Fourth International Conference on Arctic Research Planning (ICARP IV) Summit organised from 25 - 28 March 2025 with the theme ?Arctic Research Planning for the Next Decade?. Our ASSW session is not your average AGU plenary. We want to ask, and try to answer, the hard questions in anticipation of an IPY that is still many years away: 1. What new Arctic observations will be needed over the coming decade to inform and validate next-generation models, emerging technologies and new machine learning approaches? 2. How do we plan for in situ Arctic communication/sensing observational campaigns during the most intense decadal geomagnetic storms, when advance warning of their onset is extremely limited? 3. For the sensitive topic of communications and sensing, how do we navigate challenges to Arctic scientific cooperation and diplomacy in an era of rising geopolitical tensions?

Science for Resilient Communications and Sensing in a Rapidly Changing Arctic The Arctic environment is rapidly changing. An expanding human presence and growing geopolitical activity is driving a pressing need to communicate and sense without disruption. In particular, Search And Rescue (SAR) operations, disaster response, enforcement of international norms and agreements, and the maintenance of reliable lines of communication at times of high geopolitical tension, all require new communication and sensing strategies that are resilient to disrupting factors: the harsh Arctic operating environment, geomagnetic activity and other natural and anthropogenic drivers of ionospheric disturbances. In the arena of communications and sensing, Arctic research planning for the next decade should be cognizant of, and leverage, new developments in next-generation predictions of both the terrestrial and space environments, including high-fidelity earth-system and magnetospheric modeling and deep learning approaches. We solicit participation in an ICARP IV Summit session with three main goals: 1. Anticipate the transformative role of high-performance computational tools and deep learning techniques in driving new research directions for resilient Arctic communication and sensing. Key Research Planning Question: What new Arctic observations will be needed over the coming decade to inform and validate next-generation models, emerging technologies and new machine learning approaches? 2. Map out and plan for observations supporting new Arctic-specific strategies to communicate and sense through challenging environments and ionospheric disturbances. 3. Promote a common understanding of the need for resilient communications and supporting collaborations--including data sharing to support disaster response, research cooperation to improve disaster response, and collaborative observing to enforce international norms and agreements--while being mindful of geopolitical constraints. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Cielo investigators requiring ground-based experimental campaign support from the Jicamarca Radio Observatory should take note of the paragraph regarding Jicamarca provided below and posted on https://landau.geo.cornell.edu/cielo.html for guidance. Specifically, the relevant paragraph should be copied and included in their NASA LCAS proposal. Note that this language supersedes instructions on page B.9-6 of the LCAS solicitation only for proposals for Peru missions that require Jicamarca support. Investigators requiring ground-based support from the Jicamarca Radio Observatory, including any of its supporting instruments such as the Digisonde, the VIPIR sounder, the AMISR-14, and regional magnetometers, GNSS receivers, and sounders, etc., should address their requirements by including the following text in their LCAS proposals. ?We anticipate the availability of ground-based support for the Cielo campaign from the Jicamarca Radio Observatory. It is understood that individual PIs need not make provisions for Jicamarca observing time in their proposal budgets. To the extent the NASA mission outlined in this proposal requires Jicamarca support, we have verified that the necessary experimental capabilities are either available now or will be available by the time of the campaign with the Observatory Director, Danny Scipio?n, or the Campaign Scientist, David Hysell. The proposal furthermore outlines the nature of the observing support required. We anticipate that the proposed investigation will require up to XX hours of observing time.?

We encourage all users of the IRI to update to the latest version of the model to avoid interuption and to ensure continued use of the model after October 2024. If you use an older version of the IRI, a truncated index file is provided here: https://chain-new.chain-project.net/echaim_downloads/capped/ig_rz.dat This file will not include dates after October 2024, as such older versions of the IRI will not crash with this file, but they will not be able to be used for dates beyond October 2024. If you use an older version of IRI2020, IRI2016, or IRI2012 but cannot update to the latest version and still need to run for dates after October 2024, a stopgap fix can be enacted as follows: In the read_ig_rz subroutine within your version of irifun.for, replace the real variable declaration with the following: real????????aig(1600),arz(1600) and in the tcon subroutine within your version of irifun.for, replace the real variable declaration with the following: real????????ionoindx(1600),indrz(1600) real????????ig(3),rz(3) In versions of the IRI prior to December 2023, these variables are set to 806 elements which needs to be increased, here to 1600 elements. You should also implement a fix to the real(12,*) declarations in read_ig_rz subroutine within irifun.for with the following: read(12,*) iupm,iupd,iupy read(12,*) imst,iyst,imend,iyend I do not guarantee that these changes will work for all older versions of the IRI and still recommend that all users update to the latest version, but if you recompile with these changes it should make it so that you can use those older versions of the model with the new index files. If you use IRI2007, the ig_rz.dat file for that version is formatted differently and the new index files would not work regardless. If you have any questions, please reach out to me or the IRI Working Group. Cheers, David Themens -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
