Descriptions for the Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Working Group 1
Sessions on Ionospheric Outflows at 2002 GEM Telluride Workshop
---------------------------------------------------------------
From:  Tom Moore (thomas.e.moore at gsfc.nasa.gov)
       Bill Peterson (bill.peterson at lasp.colorado.edu)

We are soliciting your participation as a presenter, provocateur or
contributor to the informal discussions that the GEM M-I Coupling Working
Group 1 (Ionospheric Outflows) will hold in Telluride, Colorado
June 24-26. We are especially interested in hearing from investigators
seeking to relate ionospheric outflow processes to observations and theory.

Please let one of us know, preferably by email, if you would
like to have a few minutes to present a viewpoint in one of the sessions
described below. Requests for oral presentations should be sent directly to
the working group co-chairs (above), while requests for poster presentations
should be submitted at the Workshop website:
