Description
The magnetosphere and ionosphere are inexorably connected through electromagnetic, gravitational, and inertial forces. The coupling is particularly strong at high latitudes, where magnetospheric disturbances, guided by the convergent field, serve to radically alter densities, temperatures, and flows in the ionosphere. These responses, in turn, affect the composition and configuration of the magnetosphere via feedback in the form of mass outflow and the neutral wind dynamo. The study of these processes through remote sensing has long been at the core of the CEDAR initiative. Recent years have witnessed significant advances in instrumentation, experimental techniques, and analysis strategies applied to magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling. The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for discussion of new science enabled by these efforts. Participation is solicited in the form of brief presentations aimed at provoking discussion among the attendees. If you would like to contribute formally, please email either Josh Semeter (jls@bu.edu) or Bill Bristow (Bill.Bristow@gi.alaska.edu) with a brief description of your topic.
