and Geospace Sciences (AGS) </i>(2 openings), to assume a position in atmospheric and geospace science at <a href="https://www.haystack.mit.edu/"><span style="color:#A31F34">Haystack Observatory</span></a>, a pioneering, internationally-recognized multidisciplinary
radio science and remote sensing research center, upper atmospheric observatory, and astronomical microwave laboratory. Its AGS group operates the <a href="https://www.haystack.mit.edu/the-millstone-hill-geospace-facility/"><span style="color:#A31F34">Millstone
Hill Geospace Facility</span></a>, comprising the Millstone Hill incoherent scatter radar, global GNSS total electron content (TEC) measurements, and the Madrigal distributed database system. AGS conducts fundamental and collaborative research into the complex
and highly intercoupled near-Earth space environment within the atmosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere system. Research uses a wide variety of global observational data sets provided by incoherent and coherent scatter radars, GNSS, ionosondes, optical atmospheric
remote sensing, and satellite instruments. Will continue and advance the groundbreaking scientific investigations of the AGS group into dynamic magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere coupling and lower atmosphere-ionosphere coupling processes under the influence
of space and terrestrial weather; make use of existing ground-based and space-borne datasets along with other available observational and/or modeling resources; and report on scientific and application results through peer-reviewed publications, participation
in scientific conferences, and direct interactions/collaborations with community colleagues. Opportunities are available to help develop Haystack science and technical proposals. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
