Revision as of 13:40, 6 December 2016

Focus Group Leaders:

  • Michael Hartinger, Virginia Tech (mdhartin@vt.edu)
  • Kazue Takahashi, Applied Physics Laboratory
  • Brian Kress, University of Colorado and NOAA

Focus Group term: 2016-2020

Science Questions

Our group aims to address the following broad science questions: What mechanisms excite ULF waves? How do ULF waves couple to the plasmasphere/ring current/radiation belt populations? What is the role of ULF waves in Magnetosphere-Ionosphere coupling?

Focus Group Proposal

ULF Wave Modeling, Effects, and Applications (UMEA) (December 2015)

ULF wave modeling challenge

ULF wave modeling challenge at CCMC
