2018 GEM Workshop June 17-23, 2018

Co-Chairs for M3-I2 Sessions

Barbara Giles, NASA/GSFC/GPL
Shasha Zou, U. of Michigan/CLaSP
Vince Eccles, USU/CASS

We want to continue collaborative efforts for examining the storm periods chosen for community study:

  • Storm 1: 2016 Mar 4-8 (DOY 64-68)
  • Storm 2: 2016 Oct 11-15 (285-289)
  • Possibly: 2016 May 6-10 (127-131)
    • Especially including new and newly-restored data sets
    • Other specialized events/studies are welcome, especially those speaking to statistical states. It is important to study not only storm times, but also non-storm times in which the ionosphere is feeding the plasma sheet and building it up steadily prior to any reconnection or storm activity.

This will also be the encouraged focus for M3I2 GEM Mini-Workshop at 2018 Fall AGU.


Session 1: Thursday 10:30AM - Room tbd - Main Focus: Observations/Physical Processes of Upflow/Outflow

  4. Chih-Ping Wang of UCLA: Contribution of tail mantle and LLBL to ionospheric upflow
  5. Shasha Zou of UMichigan: PFISR observations of ion upflow and downflow
  6. Matina Gkioulidou: Van Allen Probe observations of ion outflow
  7. additional workshop contributors to be listed soon


Session 2: Thursday 1:30 PM - Room tbd -- Observations/Physical Processes of the Coupled Ionosphere-Magnetosphere System as a Consequence to Upflow/Outflow
