forum for the community of investigators studying the thermospheric thermal,
compositional, dynamic structures, and their interaction with the ionosphere
using coordinated observations from ground- and space-based instruments,
including GOLD, ICON and COSMIC-2. Of particular interest are investigations
combining ground-based and space-based observations, opportunities for
campaigns, and/or proposals for coordinated ground- and space-based
instruments. The sessions will include time for open discussion assessing
progress and discussing future directions.</span></p>
