Description
The start of the new solar cycle provides an opportunity for us to observe how the IT system changes with increasing solar flux using C/NOFS instrumentation as well as new modes and instruments at the Jicamarca radio observatory. This workshop is designed to examine what we can now measure well, what we measure poorly, and how we can integrate ground- and space-based observations to understand more completely the IT system at low latitudes. Computational models of the system have made enormous advances in recent years, and so the new solar cycle presents an opportunity for model validation. What observations are needed to test and then improve the models? Are the models up to the task of forecasting? Are we ready for the next generation of space missions?

This is where the final summary workshop report will be.
