2023 Workshop: GDC and DYNAMIC science

We invite short presentations on developments of observational techniques and theory and numerical modelling of the variability of the ionosphere-thermosphere-mesosphere (ITM). The focus will be: 1) leverage multi-point and multi-source observations from current and planned observing systems to provide necessary measurements of the ITM variability across multi-scales; 2) advance model schemes and methodologies to gain improved understanding and predictive capability of the ITM system and space weather. Research results from observational, theoretical and simulation studies are all welcomed.

The ionosphere-thermosphere-mesosphere (ITM) is a highly dynamical region but remains poorly understood due to lack of necessary measurements. This session calls for presentations on developments of advanced observational techniques from ground- and space-based platforms as well as theoretical and modeling research of the variability of the ITM. The purpose is to encourage discussions from the community on how to improve our understanding and gain predictive capability of the ITM and space weather.
