The MPEC Focus group aims to characterize magnetospheric particle precipitation from source to destination with rejuvenating observational and numerical capabilities.

Focus Group Chairs

Dogacan Su Ozturk -- University of Alaska Fairbanks
Dong Lin -- High Altitude Observatory, National Center for Atmospheric Research
Yiqun Yu -- Beihang University
Katherine Garcia-Sage -- NASA Goddard Space Flight Center
Stephen Kaeppler -- Clemson University

Focus Group Goals

To advance the physical knowledge and improve the numerical modelling of:
- The magnetospheric particle precipitation (precipitation mechanism and characteristics, magnetospheric origin, auroral forms).
- The effects of particle precipitation on the ionospheric electrodynamics, with an emphasis on the ionospheric conductance.
- Response of the I-T system to precipitation and its feedback to the Magnetosphere.
