<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Dear Colleagues,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">the 15th International Workshop on Layered Phenomena in the Mesopause Region (LPMR) and the 20th International EISCAT Symposium will be held as a joint meeting in Sweden on August 15-19, 2022.
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The LPMR workshop aims at advancing our understanding of mesospheric ice clouds and related phenomena in the Earth’s mesosphere and lower thermosphere, ranging from microphysics to the global and solar-terrestrial processes
controlling the region. The EISCAT Symposium has its focus on incoherent scatter radar and on the atmospheric/ionospheric science explored by this measurement method, including the upcoming EISCAT_3D system. A goal of the joint meeting is to bring the LPMR
and EISCAT communities together, thus providing a forum to learn more about scientific interests, recent advances and new opportunities. The meeting will comprise both separate and combined LPMR and EISCAT sessions.
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The meeting will be held in <a href="https://sundbyholms-slott.se/en">
Sundbyholm Castle</a> at scenic Lake Mälaren, approximately 80 km west of Stockholm. Note that the EISCAT-related sessions will be held in a hybrid mode, thus also providing an option to participate online.</span></p>
