<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Ubuntu Mono",serif;color:black">We invite you to join us for the workshop,
<b>"GLOW Up: Community Input and Code Development,"</b> on <b>Tuesday, June 23, 2026, from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM.</b></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Ubuntu Mono",serif;color:black">The GLobal AirglOW (GLOW) model remains a foundational tool for ionosphere-thermosphere science, but localized versions have fragmented its development. To address this, we are
introducing an updated, community-driven version of GLOW featuring a transparent Python front-end, 2-D calculation capabilities, and modern driver compatibility (MSIS-2.1, IRI-2020, WMM-2020). In addition, we will hear from community members on their implementation
of the current version of GLOW.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Ubuntu Mono",serif;color:black">We welcome and encourage researchers of all experience levels to attend:</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Ubuntu Mono",serif;color:black">We will run a hands-on tutorial using a Jupyter notebook template.
