Special technology requests
I would like to have ~ 4 white boards, or some kind of writing paper on easels, that people from the audience can use to make their point. I would imagine having 1 in front, where the presenter, facilitator can use it, one in the back, and 2 1/2 back on either side, so audience participation is easy.
Description
With the large number of ionospheric data sets now available, and the advances made in capabilities of ionospheric data assimilation and imaging algorithms, it has for the first time become possible to use global estimations of the four-dimensional electron density field to characterize the physical model parameters of the system. For example, it has been recently shown that neutral winds can be successfully estimated from four-dimensional imaging. This workshop will focus on recent results, the current status and future directions of estimating physical drivers from data assimilation and ionospheric imaging.
The structure of the workshop will be as follows: The first hour will start with a short tutorial discussing our overall objectives and methodology, followed by brief 10-15 minute presentations of the current status of methods to estimate the model drivers. The second hour will be devoted to an open discussion of where the research is, and what the current issues are. Finally we will discuss the possibility of carrying out an experiment and/or a simulation designed to allow comparison of different methods of estimating physical drivers.
Workshop Summary
This is where the final summary workshop report will be.
